Thanks for the replies! Greatly appreciated.

The main thing is; I need aquarium lights. I have a Fluval 3D tank, the light died on me. I want to replace it, but Fluval Malaysia is not responding to my calls/mails. I think buying a whole new tank to strip the lighting from it is a bit too much (plus, the tank is about RM400). They do not sell separate lights. All aquarium shops in KL used to sell the Fluval 3D Edge, but apparently not anymore.

This is why I was looking into cheap and easy DIY, but of course only when it is with the same good effect as normal lighting. I also don't mind actual aquarium lamps, but the size of the hole directly in contact with open water is only 18,5x18,5x9cm (WxLxH).

Any suggestions?

better diy to change the bulb socket so that easier to maintain later on rolleyes.gif

My tank as at last night:
Size: 45cm x 25cm x 45cm cheapo tank
Ph: 6.4

Gh: no test kit yet
°C: 26°C-27°C
Light: AquaZonic 2x16W

got time to relook at this tank over the weekend and here is the current setup...

overall look of the small tank... the red led temperature reading is a thermostat. got this as i planned to diy cooler but seems like no thermostat is needed but i just use it for easier temp reading...
user posted image

My effort to cool down the tank... powered by pc power supply... before 29°C-30°C, after 26°C-27°C... do this because i plan to put in shrimps... aluminium heatsink is used bcos copper heatsink is bad for fauna... if i'm not mistaken aluminium is not harmful for ph above 5... correct me if i'm wrong...

comments are welcomed :wink:

thanks to weijie for supplying stuffs...
