I used a single length of blue LED light rope folded in half and slid into a clear plastic florescent tube cover (found at a local home improvement store), which is a little bigger in size and shape then an actual florescent tube. The blue LED lights are then set on the stand just behind the tank. The blue led lights give off a warm glow and makes for a great night light (hint: The LED rope is on a timer by itself).You can even just use a LED light rope by itself folded in half

Hey! glad to see someone else has this exact combination. I'm pretty new to fish owning, so glad to see someone making it work, I do have a question though. A friend who owns a couple large tanks of fish told me that Black Fins after they get to a certain size need to be acclimated to a heavier salt water system. Anyone know if this is true and if this requires putting them in a different tank then the Mollies? If anyone can offer two cents on it I would much appreciate it.

@Kudaimo Good question as mine are rather big and I would hate to loose them due to lack of salt in the water. Maybe a search on google would provide some answers..?

The Black fin shark is named that but it is actually a cat fish. And my knowledge of fish shouldn't restrict me, or anyone for that matter, from owning a tank. Many people own fish tanks because it is a pleasant addition to their environment.

@vorkev1 Dude, seems to me you dont know anything about fish either. If your expecting to see great whites in this tank then your a retard. And those black fin sharks are catfish we know, however they are called BLACK FIN SHARKS! Do not say to people that they shouldnt own fish if they dont know fish to well, when clearly you have no idea on what your on about. get down bad kid.

@iFresHzx I've read that they need a 125G because you need at least 5 or so as they're schooling fish but I've never owned them personally

I'm about to get a black finned shark for my 90G which has some mollies in it, I was just wondering if yours bothered/ate your mollies when they got larger?

[FransFishes]
