Still to come, led's to light the tank and blue backing to hide the wires

I used to have bubble altezza tail lights and thought, hmm what if i cut a hole on the top and put fishes and water into it for car shows? but i fucked up my tail lights.

I havent really figured out how to enclose it with the bubbler and still make it possible to take out once a week and clean, let alone feeding it too. So for now its just a show piece

Since the old A/V stuff was ripped off early 2k4 I havent made the time to buy and install some new stuff. So after driving around with a big hole for almost a year I decided to try to fill it with something. And no I didnt get the Idea from "Ruin my Ride" or Manny Fresh, It was a impulse thing at the pet store yesterday.
