DIY LED Aquarium Lighting - HOW TO 

The video is amazing, and so is the music. Thank you!

What a great looking lamp, it looks expensive. Thank you for sharing.

Completely stunning!

Woah! What a build! Great job!

Great Job!

Awesome! Thanks for video!👍

I like it. It was a bit complicated at first but then I see you cutting those parts in the end.

Very Helpful Video. Thank you!

Cool video..that sound track thou..fire!!

Great stuff!

Impressive !

Great DIY video. I am starting a guppy fish hobby and I am searching for custom lightings for a small aquarium tank. This gave me a great idea. Thanks.

Perfect... professional...good job 👍

Very nicely done!

wow it's amazing dude😍😍😍😍😍

Wish I had better DIY skills lol. Love this video bro! ✌🙂

Thank you Hyrule Hero 👏

Thanks for sharing... I have two EchoTech Radion 30W G3 and just might use this design.

Good work man👍👍👍

Great idea! . Build one of black walnut some years ago. Also made my two stands of aluminium. The wooden cover is pretty heavy and I wasn't sure if it could take the weight for a longer period of time. Always afraid to wake up from a firework at the Aquarium, it actually never happend till now. . Back in the days where I built it I've been making some mistakes for sure. I was about 15 or 18 years old. Now at the age of 30 there are some changes to consider. Although it's still in duty during all the years it's becoming more difficult the get the short T5 lights at the shop. I want to swamp them for LED. . The second change should cover it from the water to avoid electric accidents. . The third change has to prevent topwater fishes to jump outside and drown. I lost many fish friends by this circumstance. To solve it there should be a stainless grille on top. It protects the Killifishes from the deadjump and let the water evaporate to safe the wooden cover from fungus. In the middle there has to be a big square hole for the light to pass inside the tank. . My cover is way lower and closer to the watersurface. . Best regards, Johnny 🇩🇪

Awesome ideas my friend

Nice DIY

I love your teaching

Perfect work and what a great video‼️Thank you so much for inspiring me to try this on my own. Looks fantastic! All the best, Boris🇨🇭

Good... kreatifnya bagus 👍

Nice build! But it was the soundtrack that kept me zoned in! I’m a music producer of 90’s hip hop so when I hear stuff inside my lane, I tune in! 👍🏾💯

Super super super

No problem !

¡excelente trabajo! empezare a buscar los materiales

The backsound is coverring my attention

Nice build! A RGB strip and an arduino and some simple code could give you some specific highlights. Some red leds (in between the white leds) above some red plants for example. Seen a nice showtank using this in a aquarium shop on my roadtrip teue England. Keep up the good work!

Everything is nice but i or may be 90% people would prefer buying a ready-made led light because it's not easy to make this led as everyone does not have all the tools required to make this DIY light. Well you have nice skills and you made a nice product ☺️

The backsound :" hey, pocong pocong pocong, hey"

Nice work! What LEDs did you use? And would you happen to have a link to them?

I'm going to add some red led light, how did you get it to go around the corners like that, didn't show nothing and hard to make out how you did

I've been using LED floodlights for a while now - they're inexpensive and throw a lot of light. I built them into boxes so there's no light leak. The plants love them - but so does algae, so you'll need a LOT of plants and/or supplemental CO2.

great job is that parts of zelda in the music

Hmm, predict fail in less than a year, applying that material over the top of the aluminum which has the LED strip attached on the opposite side, defeats the use of the metal as a heat sink for the hight intensity lights. Easy fix though, trim back the covering along the edges and re-expose the metal.

Where did you buy the aluminum rods? Will they have another specific name? thanks

Nice work. How did you attach it to the aquarium. I mean the spacers you created at 10:40 how are they sticking to the aquarium afterwards?

Is this for a low tank setup? the light seems te be too high up from the water

Exelent, what rod thickness are you using?

Can you specify the led strip lights you used?

Hi there, I aks myself if the lightspectrum is the right one for good growing plants? Do you know about that?

Wish i have all the tool u used

Great job! Did you know how many Lumens it produce?

Hallo friend, How it was fixed with the glass of the aquarium, I didn't follow. Please explain once again.

R the plants growing good?

Appreciable thing.... The light flow will be throughout the tank ( vertical and horizontal). U could have used a glue gun rather than all other glues..... U did a long process By the way thumps up

where can we buy the led strip?

What did you use for a top panel for led?

Hey great patience and craft skills. Just a question, is this safe? What happens if it falls inside the water ? I know it should not, but let's think of three kids running around the house!

Whered you buy the led strips from?

Cool, great job! Is it just sitting on top? Or glued on? New sub from Australia ❤️🇦🇺

Nice build. Really cant tell ur a Zelda fan LOL

İt looks very professional but i doubt that these led will be efficient to grow plants. Liked and subscribed by the way :)

pleas link this led

El problema que veo ahí es que para un plantado creo que no tiene los lúmenes suficientes para mantener plantas en óptimas condiciones. Sería de averiguar cuántos lúmenes generan los LEDs y así poder calcularlo .

That 1 dislike was probably on accident

Does it actually help the plants grow?

Easy matamu..

Now the question, this LED strips can grow plants?

as the material is called? 6:44 (top panel) thank u 😉

What is the Voltage and Watt of led?

Watt pls

Which led did you use?

What kind of led to use

Nice music! Hahahaha

Nice build, but horrible music

very nice, but to time consuming.

nice video. The music was distracting

It's cool, but I feel like you'd have as much in parts for the build as you would if you just bought a light :-/

Anyone noticed the dark water?

😍😍😍 after watching this I made my mind .. to buy light from shop only😂

This will make you Way more expensive than to buy it on store

Music background so annoying

Was this Final Fantasy and Ocarina of Time Music? Lol

You just started off bending like some avatar. Didn't show how wide the aquarium was and distances you used for bending the 6mm aluminium rod. Also didn't show how wide the rod was in comparison with the aquarium and how you bend it in the middle.

All I could think of was zelda, you must be a zelda fan??

If i was build i will use 3 row of Rigid 5630 Xb 2 cool white 1 warm white 1 red 1 blue 1 green. But i didnt have time. My job is killing me

Sawing it off... Not of 🤦‍♂️

how is it DIY???? so much equipment required....i guess technically it is ...but not all of us can do it.... Anyways great final product

"Machan" the sound that I hear in the song is meant "hey yo!" in my language. 🤣

Really??? If I can afford these many tools, I will buy a new branded light.... Heheheh

The music is a distraction and annoyance. Rather you talk.

Great Job!!!
