    I made my own using some plans that i got somewhere not sure where anyways they were kind of pricy but it was the DIY that I liked about them.
    They are 10 LEDs I got everything from Radio Shack.

    Now if one burns out would they all go OFF?
    Did you shrink tube them or electrical tape them?

    Can you get a shot with them on with the whole tank being seen?

    If one went off the rest would stay on.Basicly what I did was run 2 wires +/- .Then tapped into each wire with the pos/neg of each LED.
    Asfor a pic with it on ill need to mess with my camera to get the right white balance,but i will get one.
