Fish Tank Lights
The idea of this project is to make lights for 30/10 gallons fish tank for relatively cheap or with items you already have.
3x 38-inch light strip of your choice. (30G)
3x 20-inch light strip of your choice. (30G)
38in x 2 in a piece of wood or metal. (10G)
20in x 2 in a piece of wood or metal. (10G)
2x M5 screws 30mm
Hot glue
Tape or carbon Vinyl
Led strip controller & power supply based on the led strip you are using.
Total Cost: $5
For this project, I used Fusion 360 to design two holders that will be attached to the edges of the tank that will hold the wood piece.
Using the tape or carbon vinyl attach it to the wood piece. The reason I did that to make it easier to use hot glue to attach the light strip since it won't attach directly to the wood.
Step 2:
Attach the led strip to the wood piece using the hot glue. You can mix between RGB or Blacklight for this project.
Step 3
Attach the two holders to the side of the wood using the M5 screws.
Step 4
Make sure everything is placed correctly and no wires hanging or touching the water. After that just slide the holders into the edges of the tank.
