Ha ha - has anyone had any experience of the LED strip lights you see on ebay when you search?

It not funny Wobble I thought I would have to set up the spare bed  brother in law uses LED in his Fluval Edge, have to say very good, he got them from Maidenhead also

Ok. I am looking to do this tank as cheap as possible as it may not stay if the other half gets his way.
If I dont keep it - will sell it on as a full set up

If it's only temporary, have you got a reading light you can use while you change everything over? That way you're not forking out anything except a heater......

Thanks - i do that with my shrimp tank.

I am looking for something more than this just in case my lovely smile works and my OH lets me keep the tank

LED lighting is currently far more expensive (for a given light output) than fluorescent, so probably not an option if you are keeping costs down..

I have seen them on ebay for £9.50 including the transformer - am i missing something? thats seems quite cheap to me?

[Apache]

Not missing anything. It just wont be ANYWHERE near as bright as a fluoro for similar money.

Ok. I will start to suss out what is going to fit when I pick up the tank - likely to be weekend now.
