yeah i was planning a LED lighting system but the amount of LED's that I theorized it to need was a rather large amount. The LED systems on the market use optics to intensify the light so you don't need as many LED's. They help diffuse and spread the light evenly, much more so than I would be...

Damn that looks like they put it on a hella long circuit board. Like I said, I have some ideas but I haven't worked them out yet into a design. The hardest part is keeping spray off of them so they don't corrode. My first design worked because it sat on top of a glass plate. This new design...

I wasn't talking about adding a full LED lighting system. Lunar lights are the blue LED lamps that people set up during the lights out phase. I don't have the technology to build a good LED white light system. For that you need optics that can magnify and focus the lighting in a way that...

I'm a mechanical engineer that designs motors and generators. Electrical parts have always been a keen interest of mine since I was a kid. I used to take things apart to see how they worked, though they never worked the same after I got done with them...lol I have taken several electrical...

Google to the rescue http://www.nanotank.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=474 man that was a long time ago.... :lol:

you need some LED's, some resistors. a project box (or something to shield the lights) and a power source. I have made my own but it will really depend on what you use as a power source and the voltage that it puts out. You will need to do some calculations on computing the resistor value...

Most people won't put an anemone under power compacts but i think that you might be able to get away with it in a 10g tank due to the depth. Personally I wouldn't attempt an anemone if this is your first tank. You need a stable tank, which is usually 6 months to a year old.

yeah the white bar is a spray bar. I have 11x Ø.25 holes across the front face and 11x Ø.375 holes across the bottom that spray down the back of the tank. The area of the holes very closely match the area of a Ø1.5" pipe so I'm getting the max flow that I can get through the holes. The...
