Mark,
Try running the lights between the back of the tank and the back drop. If
your background is flammable, you could always forget the lights and place a
nice pine in the tank decorated with feeder guppy garland. ;-)
Happy Holidays,

I think the lights are working fine. It's just that you can't see them with
your head where it is.

Buy a bag of feeder fish... Mix them up, some goldies, some gup's and some
rosy red's... If you want to try and mimicl the colour of the lights, check
the LFS fancy guppy tank, they have lots of nice colours...j/k...
