    On quick review digital pots are pretty cheap. I have to see what resistance range the pots are for the lights, but I'll keep you guys updated in my build thread.

    That one does look like you could take it apart and replace the LED's and/or add optics if you need to.

    Edit: Lights will be here today!

    If/when you get a dimmer system that won't harm the lights figured out, I would like to know the specifics of it. I'm sure others would too.

    Thanks

    Awesome! post pics. I haven't gotten my tank put together yet so the controller is a ways off.

    I can't take any good pics of it for some reason. Especially in actinics. The birds nest I have looks amazing in it. Can't seem to get the neon green out of it.
