    try to diy using LED light but then turn out not what i wanted, the light is too blue and need to mix with warm light LED.

    but then too lazy to get the replacement, i ended up changing my Ikea table lamp to a DIY lamp holder. which able me to turn the lamp left or right when maintaining the tank .

    The IKEA lamp is cool

    What material did you use? is that a copper pipe? Is the first 2 picture LED?

    the Ikea lamp holder is make from copper pipe where its use for air-con. some left over when i change the air-con few year back. so make full use of it.

    For the first picture - yes its LED strip light. at first try it with 6x0.3m(strip) and its too bright. so reduce to 4x0.3m. it will be good if were to have a mix combination of LED 2x(white) + 2x(cool/warm light).
