    Re: My custom tank!

    well I did buy that, but when i went to install it, it was open. so, i ran to walmart and bought a car LED kit. it was $14. It changes colors with the push of a button. I also bought a converter from radio shack because the LED kit was an a/c car plug. the radio shack converter accepts that plug, then plugs into the regular outlet.
