One length of Rain Gutter (To fit your aquarium), 2 Gutter End Caps, 1 roll of reflective (Silver) Duct Work Tape, 1 Remote Waterproof LED strip kit from EBay to match Aquarium length (10.99 + free shipping). Line your gutter on the Inside with the reflective tape, run your LED Strip over the reflective tape and the power wire through one end cap. You can add additional tape to support your lights but the factory Adhesive is more then strong enough. Paint your gutter cap Black on the outside if it's exposed, draws less attention. Plug it in and play with the settings. It is a Cheap Alternative to most DIY Aquarium Light Projects. This is a KING OF DIY project, Joey. Not my idea, but I have used it on every aquarium I own. If your not familiar with Joey, KING OF DIY, look him up you won't regret it.
Nice idea, but I feel that it should have been made longer to give a bit more stability. Perhaps designed to hook over the ends of the tank. Also the wiring connection could have been done properly, and would have made it look a lot nicer.
The arowana will eventually end up dead in the floor, and since they can break through class canopies, electrocution is a very real possibility with the way you have chosen to just rest the light across the tank. gl!
The idea is good, but the execution is bad. The wire ends must be insulated (heat shrink tubing) and the connections soldered and insulated with heat shrink tubing. In addition, I test the function before I close the final.
It is an idea up on which every on can work to have their own DIY project. As the saying goes " I can feed food in your mouth, don't ask me to chew it for you though".
Muito boa a ideia vou fazer parecido vou apenas passa um fita preta em cima e nas laterais assim não ilumina o teto semente o aquário....muito obg pela idéia
That's what I did and used PVC guttering lined with aluminium insulation tape for the reflector. Plus you can use your phone with the app to program and adjust colour etc.

What about maintenance. What if the strip get fused. How should you replace the strip. Again hav to do all process by removing glass slab and replacing LED lights again to silicon it. Very hectic process.
all things people say aside, I just didn't like how you used silicone so little... if used black caulking to coat top and used it on sides... or used alminum/acrylic with epoxy. i may have liked more...
L'idea di partenza era buona, ma personalmente non apprezzo che si veda il silicone tra un vetro e l'altro, non capisco perché optare per quel tipo di led e non per due strisce waterproof, così come non condivido il colpo di nastro isolante e appallottolare i fili quando sarebbe stato opportuno dare un colpo di saldatura a stagno e due guaine termorestringenti, così come non approvo in toto lasciare i finali coi fili scoperti e non isolandoli, il fatto che alla fine copri tutto col silicone non significa che uno dei due fili possa muoversi e andare a toccare l'altro mandando in corto i led, stessa cosa per l'aver fatto il tutto esattamente su misura senza dei supporti lasciando la plafoniera appoggiata sui bordi della vasca, basta una scorreggia per farla cadere... E Per concludere, oltre al rischio che i pesci saltino fuori, c'è anche la presa a 10 centimetri dall'acqua con un acquario senza coperchio... Tutorial per come NON fare una lampada a led per acquario.
This is so wrong for so many reasons, first is there is no maintaince, secend led tend to get very hot ... and there is not a single way to cool it, third very unstable way to put it just on edges ... u could at least add 2 small peace of glass to make slots on bot ends, forth use some kind of reflecting sheet or at least some paint to ;pwer decepation of light ....etc etc etc
With no air flow LEDs get hot as hell. I wrapped a 16' length of rbg around 4' of metal tube inside a gutter for a canopy type light and they get so hot you can not touch them with air flow
People wondering what the leds are called and where to get them. Doesn't look like this guy is gonna help. But look up led modules and you'll find a few different designs and colours. But connected in string type like these. And for the the connector look up led inline connectors on eBay and others.
Does anyone knows if LED as the same effect on the tank as the regular aquarium lights, i mean if im gonna have any sort of problem with my plants. Can anyone help? PLEASE and THANKS
as long as the wave length is right, photosynthesis will occur. if the WL is wrong then no matter how blight it is it may not work as much as you spend money on.

Nice DIY light but criminally small tank for an Arrowanna. This tank needs to be like 3 times it's current capacity for an Arrowanna.
The better you watch on 1.75x😂 xd

Does these LED stripes work for growth of basic plants?
Very nice sir I have plant aquarium
It’s totally pointless showing how to make this without giving links to where to buy the parts required.
Or replying to anyone...
Everything available on Amazon
It is an idea up on which every on can work to have their own DIY project.
As the saying goes " I can feed food in your mouth, don't ask me to chew it for you though".
Just look up led modules on ebay or similar sites. The rest is acrylic, plastic or glass. Your choice. And silicone.
Are the lights normal led white lights or specially we get lights fir aquariums ?
Where do we get these lights @..
Bagus kreatif👍...
Salam sukses...
So mach effort , money , time for what ?
The cost of that its way more than aquarium led from Ebay
The look ?
what’s the reason of all that ?
Why didn't you paint the glass from top and from sides with black colour. the light would not reflect outside, it will focus beneath only.
Correct
Clicked. . Paused. . Saw the amount of advert tabs . . Left.
Not all advt. tabs ll pop out
Cool story, Bro
what is the name of the leds? is it availble in market? is it called led strip or wat name is it called?

Muito boa a ideia vou fazer parecido vou apenas passa um fita preta em cima e nas laterais assim não ilumina o teto semente o aquário....muito obg pela idéia

An alternative is to use ready made, cheap waterproof LED strips...I have a video on that, if interested
Hiiii can u pls post that video link, tnx in advance.....
That's what I did and used PVC guttering lined with aluminium insulation tape for the reflector. Plus you can use your phone with the app to program and adjust colour etc.
Thr is no difference in before n after
Did he just remove the double side tape at the back of the led and stick them using super glue?
For my Flowerhorn 4 ft aquarium what materials size is required. Please give.
Very nice, what is the name of the gule?
Request pembuatan lampu aquarium 3 warna bang, tp setiap 1jam sekali atau brpa jam sekali lampu nya nyala secara bergantian di setiap warna 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Cool design on the light.
Vendo assim, parece fácil!
Como se funda un led a ver cómo lo cambia. Rompes el cristal?
aluminum backing is more practical for dissipating the heat
i'm pretty sure there is no heat from led lighting
@@kevintango6567 LED lights DO generate a small amount of heat compared to other light sources. They Can burn out if it is not dissipated and the temperature gets too high
Any sources on where to get the materials?
Can't suffer the music enough to watch full video. It's brutal.
If u placed this on top of the aquarium then wt was the fun making this water proof.. we could use waterproof LED strip also.
Excellent
This is nice great
nice idea, great guide..
can i ask what are the electrical materials u need for it?
very nice
Cool but how are you planning to cool the LED’s?
with aquarium water ...hahahaha
100w chip in your choice of spectrum off ebay SMD/LED chip and a 36v 1400ma driver cheap piece of aluminum 18 x 6in will murder this LED in the video
Led light gud ,,,where buy this led lights
Hola, de qué medida es tu pecera y que grosor tiene el cristal?
Can address where I got the LEDs?
Probably would have tested the lights before I sealed the glass on it 🤷🏻♂️
Wonderful amazing
Please give the sizes. LBHT of the glass. Thanks
Hola donde has comprado los LEDs y que tipo son.gracias

Y cuando se llegue a fundir uno? Hay que estaf despegando a huevo la parte delantera, y si es cristal ya lo tronaste, es una pesima idea 👎
Where u buy the lights off of
Nice idea, but not very safe for the arowana, if it jumps and taps that fixture, it'll probably get electrocuted, good luck buddy!
I purchased this type of led but they only last about a year to eighteen months then burn out but they are very bright and stick well
Very nich Bhai to Good
This video could have been A LOT SHORTER!!!!
One LED not work, how to repair..??
Pretty good video. Potentially the worst music ever used on UA-cam
how do you calculate the watts...
You need much more filtration on that tank that pump for little 10 gallons
all things people say aside, I just didn't like how you used silicone so little... if used black caulking to coat top and used it on sides... or used alminum/acrylic with epoxy. i may have liked more...
I suggest strip lights would be cheaper but I notice this video is 2016 so maybe strip lights weren't available. $15 for 16ft.
that what I think in this whole video
🌟Good🌟
7:50 what is the name of this help please

What about heat?
Could you tell me how to manage the heat????

LEDs tend not to get hot because they are so energy efficient. You get more heat from a regular light bulb.
With no air flow LEDs get hot as hell. I wrapped a 16' length of rbg around 4' of metal tube inside a gutter for a canopy type light and they get so hot you can not touch them with air flow
