I'm using black gorilla tape to wrap all the wires to the pipe...so most of the pipe will be black. Maybe one day I'll pretty it up a bit. I just want this tank running lol

oh, and I had to google gorilla tape. That's cool, except it'll be a royal pain in the ass to remove any one of those lights if you every need to service or replace one.

Maybe corrugated conduit piping ? They sell these at Ikea and other places to help wrap up and hide computer wires behind and under desks.



Use it to wrap over your PVC and hold your light's wires in place. I use it under my stand to hide/cover my wires.

That's a good idea. Changed the right side of the tank rock around and created a cool cavern and overhang. [IMG][IMG][/IMG][/IMG]
