Light screen prices are criminal aren't they. This one came up pretty good though for a first run!
The trick is to run the LEDs all the way around the rim though to get really even light.
You crashing sound effect scared the crap out of me as well! aahahahahah
They're just stupid expensive, almost made me rage when I saw the prices 😅. I'll definitely do a version 2 for this at some point. At the moment, I'm happy with it.. not too strong and distracting. (Sorry about the crashing, lol)
@@HobbyScapesHQ I think you nailed the framing for the light screen!
I would do the exact same thing.
When you do decide to make another one. Grab an ARGB strip light they allow you to customise each section of the strip so you can get that gradual fading effect like the professional ones. You could set the top to white the bottom to blue then half way up wither side a gradual colour shift.
I'm using a strip above my Vampire crab paludarium to get a nice natural evening glow. It works really well.
I didn't know about ARGB strips... I had a look now, and they look great. Definitely will pick one up to play around with it. Thanks
@@HobbyScapesHQ No problem! I find the Govee ones the best of the bunch. I was using the suepr cheap strips for a while but they are garbage and failer really easily. I also suggest making sure whatever you get has a dedicated whtie light! Don't get the ones that mix colours to get white!
Great! I'll check them out

Thank you very much! There is room for improvement, but I'm happy with how it turned out
That looks awesome! The blue light it's just mesmerising!! 3:37
Thank you! I'm happy with how it turned out... not too strong to distract from the tank, but enough to make it a little more interesting 🙂
This is great. I was planning on making something very similar.
The design can be improved, but I think it's a good baseline to build on. Let me know how it goes for you.
So pretty I love it
Thank you!
Nice share my friend
Thank you!
All of my tanks are backlit. I almost feel like it's not a tank without it.
I agree with you. They do look great . I feel like the "brand" ones are way too overpriced... so, for the moment, DIY is the way for me... not gonna compete with those, but will do the trick for me
