    here's my 2x18W DIY lights for my 1foot cube in camp.








    sorry for the bad pictures. took them in a rush. the set is actually made slightly longer than 1ft to avoid blocking the PLs. so it's sticking out of the tank a bit.

    things needed:
    1.air con trunking - at least 10cm wide
    2.18W PLs
    3.e-ballast for 2x18W lamps
    4.PL connectors (code 2G11) or separate molex connectors (those used in computer power supplies.. the 4 pin thingy)
    5.clips for PLs
    6.wiring
    7.reflective sticker
    8.screws and nuts
