I like the moon it gives a sence of peace to you and the fish. ONe combo I do is you may get a light that has 2 differnt types of light because there may be time when you wont it to be bright or at night winddown. I know you can have timers for lights like have different cyles like morning a blue the light then blue. I dont know mush about light so I hoped it helped

If you consider yourself handy you can pick up a couple of LED light with some resistors. They run pretty cheap, I'd say like 10 bucks in total. Then wire them to a 6V-12V transfomer which you can then hook up to any wall outlet. The only problem I had was figuring out how to attach it to my hood. I eventually drilled a couple of holes in a PVC pipe ran all my lights through it and then braced that to my hood.

How do you wire in the resistors?

And what strength resistor?

Not sure what strength resistor. The guy at the store just kind of put it all together for me. I was going to use a 12V transformer but the guy gave me a 6v. I tried the 12V that I had at home but it seemed to bright. I will try to post pic later on today.
