I have the Lunar sim so they are replicating a lunar cycle and not full blast all of the time, also this cam is not the most sensitive to light.

Excellent build! You should do a thread just on the stained glass. I would love to see how you did that and give it a try. What camera do you have on your tank?

The "stained glass" is just broken colored glass, glued to a clear sheet, then grouted with non-sanded grout.
The camera is a hercules dualpix hd720p

EVC 14k's over all tanks now.
you can notice the more blue in the cam :D it does not look quite so blue in person. I am not sure if that is just the color of the bulb or if it is the stain glass being REALLY blue :D
