Is this a good idea? Glow in the dark water cooling

[darylprater]

I'm thinking about building a PC with water cooling with clear hoses. I will use tonic water as the fluid. Because tonic water glows under a black light.

Then replace the LEDs in my PC with blacklight LEDs. Then when I turn the lights out in my room the tubes in my PC will glow from the inside lighting everything up.

Would this be worth the time to build?

Never mind I just googled it. It looks like other people have already done it, I can't find a delete button for this post...

just keep in mind that using "FOOD" as coolant will cause problems.
just use some UV reactive coolant (or distilled water + UV die)

I would recommend you definitely use UV coolant with UV lights rather than anything meant for food or cooking. You do not want anything to encourage growth in the loop.
