Gotta love a sharp looking ER!
 
So were ours. The metal surrounds were not open in the back like most so no light came in. Making it hard to read the levels. The light strips I got came from Home Depot. While the light set comes with a transformer/dimmer they are 12v LEDs. And LEDs are potted in plastic and the strip is adhesive backed.

I think that's one of the best ideas I've seen on the Forum! I love it!
 
I agree with Codger2 great idea!
 
Thanks guys. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. We marked the tube in one hundred gallon increments as we filled it as well.
