Light casing

[raytan12]

Hi guys,
I'm wondering where can i get casing for lighting. i am thinking of diy my lighting for my new-upcoming 2ft tank.i saw the light holder at IKEA, billy bookcase lighting.can attach 2 normal type of light bulbs. think it would be better. i can get a U-shape casing and attach 2 billy book case light holder, so in total i can have 4 bulbs, get about 13W cool white light bulbs, that will give me about 52W in total (4W per gallon). so guys, do you all know where i can get the casing from? how much would it cost roughly for 2ft? thanks alot guys

For casing, some of us DIY using PVC air-con trunkings or rain gutters. Check out these discussions:

Or you can get ready-made ones at reasonable prices from Nature Aquarium.
