Default Has anyone made a nice looking LED not in canopy?

Has anyone made a nice looking DIY LED not in a canopy? i have seen lotsa pics of diy leds and not really any that are mounted/hung above a tank with no canopy.

I am considering going LED (since my m/h ballast just burnt out) i like the idea of a diy but i do not have a canopy on my stand and do not want to buy one as i like the look of a wire hung fixture.

i was considering a couple different options if i couldn't figure out a pretty way to put a diy fixture together.

1. i have a reefbrite led and i could use it and maybe anotherin their 3 or 5 led bracket and make either 1 or 3 diy rails for the middle or even all of them could be diy for that matter but i dont mind the idea of it coming out looking something similar to this:



2. have a coralife pro fixture currently and they are probably about 8" deep which would leave quite a bit of room to fit a diy fixture if i gut it of all old components.



3. show me a nice diy led someone has made
