    Sorry for the quality of pics. these arent mounted yet i was just holding them above the tank. they should be way dimmer once i have them mounted on the tracks. These pics were only a few inches off the water.
    I got them at IKEA. total of 36 leds. i might only have to use half of that though seeing how bright they are now.

    i got mine about 9 months ago. i got the model before they had the wirless controller so mine has a button built in to the wiring to change it. not a big deal to me though.
    i was using this to light up a cabinet in my room, but i figured this is a better use for it lol
