The final product

i am worried about a short circuit due to humidity but its a open roof tank so won't be an issue for atleast 1 month , in summers that can be so i am planning to cover the whole setup in a box. Will do it next week.

PS: PCB is not at all compulsory in this setup , i used it because it makes the work easy and neat
comments/suggestions are welcome :thnk

i don't know the wattage of these leds, these are actually available as light emitting diodes in electronic shops.
