These LED right was initially going to installed in my hamster pet room (but it's too bright so i gave up the idea)
Since i started to rear fish and wanted to plant water plant, i decide to modify the LED light for aquarium use.

Total aquarium capacity is 19 Litre. After deduct the volume of stones & soils, final capacity is not more than 15 Litre.
I am using 65cm 12V5050 LED Strip, connected to 12V 1A adapter.
The LED Strip consist of 39 LED bulb and consume 9.36W of power/hour. The brightness is more than 900Lux (tested with phone camera).

I do a researched on the internet, and believe this level of brightness is sufficient for the water plant to survive.

Due to the soil properties, my Guppies are not suitable for this type of environment.
