    Guys

    I have a HOB Fuge that I made and I am trying for figure out a lighting solution. I have come accross a number of lighting solutions.
    I have seen the little clip on light JBJ makes a nice one.
    I have seen people use a Coralife PC

    My preference is to use LED as I dont want to introduce more heat into the tank.

    There were a few people, that I found, that use submersible LED Tube lights and this is the one I like the best. Get to use lights and it is all within the FUGE so it can be completely all contained, no bleeding light anywhere :)

    However... Finding a place that sells these is a littel hard. I was able to find people that make them (LEDs that are grow lights-- Red Grow lights-- Actinic etc..) but these three places I found are wholesale and do not support singular purchases. I could not seem to find a retailer (some companies were over seas).

    So my questions....
    You know that they sell those decorative under water lights.. Do you think that a few (2-3) of these would work?
    Is there something else that would support my little idea?

    Thanks for your time
