nice work matey wat do u keep in the blue lighted ones ?? just been nosey xx
I have my two carolina corns and my stripe corn in the blues. The blue is just low level led lighting. Purely for effect and so i can see what is going on. The blue tanks gain there heat from the heat lamps in the 2 vivs below. so saving a few pounds on the electric. They all have digital thermometers so i can monitor temps.

thats fab very neat and look professinal loevly work , can i ask do you use timers or do u do it all manually ? reason i ask is i havestarted to use timers but i still have to go check for some daft reason,
all the IR heat lamps on on stats and stay on all the time. the blue leds are on a timer. it works great I have used timers for a long time with lighting for my fish tanks so well used to time. most have a switch on the side so you can have the timer active or just have the lights on. you maybe need to check that if you are having problems with yours.
