I know many of you have seen the new LED bulbs in your local home improvement stores and then thought "Hey! I'll get me some of them...." Well...... Don't. At least not for this kind of lighting project. The light they give off is directional and overly blue. The blue part is OK because maybe that goes with your color scheme.... but the light is surprising directional so anything you put it in, like a Fugu or Fish Float will only really light up on one side.
