led lights
I found this on ebay too. It's not very cheap by any means but it looks kinda cool. Do you think there's an advantage having such a specific product?

I just figured buy a few LED's, some resistors and dig up a old power supply ( found one - output 6v 300ma from a old tape recorder) from the basement. Put it all together and you have a very cost effective moonlight setup - $8 bucks in parts for a 4 light setup if you don't have to buy the power supply. Besides i need something to keep me busy on saturday. The second link on the previous post has a pic of what the one guy did - seems to be nice but have to wait and see i guess how mine will turn out.

Here is another site you can check out for LED's.
http://autolumination.com/fixtures.htm I wish I could remember the thread I found these on because the pics over the tank running 2 of the 3 lamp systems looked great.

I buy my LEDs from http://www.lsdiodes.com/ . They ship up to Canada for a pretty darn good rate, and have freebies if you buy over a certain amount. I had 3 LEDs run off of an old 75watt 386 psu for a little while, but I took it down. I will have it up and running again as soon as I get my MH hood put together.

Here it is:
 I have 3 leds positioned at the side of my tank... just plain old electrical tape is holding them down right now. Once I get the final position right, I'll glue them down.  A pic of what is soon to be Jim's green digi frag. The camera doesn't catch it (mainly because I don't really know how to take the shot), but this piece actually glows green under the 3 blue LEDs.  The tank itself is actually quite a bit brighter than the picture shows... I might actually block one of the LEDs. -Richer
