I was getting algae in my skimmer due to too much overhead light from an old par38 I had on an old nano.
Today I went to Lowe’s and bought 2 skinny under shelf lights and double side taped them to the side of the glass. Hope it’s enough to keep growing macro!

Hi friend, nice idea, do you can share the link with specs of the light?

This looks like a good idea, how did it end up working?
