A while back I built a nice setup (see here), and now I think I'd like to get some pazaz in there. I was thinking of tubing that glows.

What kind of tubing do I need to get and how do I make it glow?

Color has not been decided yet. See signature for current hardware.
 
ok, thanks. now on to the next question: what color.

I have the following color conflicts:
ASUS Crossfire V (red-but not noticable with lights outs)
Ballistic Tracer (blue or orange)
Evga 860 Hydro (red-very small)

the UV reactive tubing looks like it comes in purple, blue, orange, and green.

would this work?
PrimoFlex Advanced LRT 10ft Tubing - 1/2in. ID X 3/4in. OD - Brilliant UV Blue

Logisys 12” -18 LED Super Bright Sunlight Stick- Sleeved - UV
- Sleeve Color Blue
- Heatshrink Color Blue

That would do yes, but I highly recommend you look at ordering the uv cathodes from abroad, as Akasa seems to be the only cold cathodes that are worth much since AC Ryan's kits are no longer available.

Yes they ship here and also have an ebay page to order from too.

If I can find pics on my phone I can show you the Primo Advanced LRT blue under UV. That is a single Akasa UV light attached to top of window panel via 3M double sided sticky strips found at Walmart (lasted longer than the defaults which I removed).
