Still tryign to figure out how to bump up the lighting in my tank...
Preformed lid has built-in PC lighting...
I want to add more to it..
ANYONE have ANY experience with this?

I've taken two Jebo PC fixtures apart and put them into a retro. I did this because the wiring was getting to be in bad shape and the connections were failing. So I repaired this the best I could and put it all in a single canopy. One set became nearly unusable recently and I threw it away. The other still works OK. But Jebo really is bottom of the barrel and I'm looking forward to getting something different.

Yeah I hear ya...
It was a christmas gift, so I couldn't be too choosey...
I've already changed allof the filtration to a DIY sump and HOB over flow box...
Now I NEED to get more lighting in there..
So what's your suggestion?
Ditch the PCs and try to screw some T5's into the lid?

If you want more light, I think t5's are a good choice. I have t5's on one tank and everything looks great in there.
