Sparky:
I did a few fiber lighting jobs on pools. The pool contractor supplied all the goodies.
One was a perimeter strip around (under) the coping; we did total install. Glue on mounting track, fit fiber into track. Snake over to lite box; 'cleave' end; done. 400 watt MH lite box, 5 color 'wheel'. Looked interesting at nite.
Same pool; retrofit 12 fiber 'bullet' type mini-spots 18" under mean high water line. Had 12 'fibers back to lite box. All in 1" PVC. Stubbed up under lite box, 400 watt MH. Looked 'soft' at nite; basically invisable during day.
Same job; had to 'light' waterfall (another 'add on') Used two (2) Stonco 12o volt spots; 250 watt PAR64 VNSP bulb, blue gel filter. Mounted 18' from pool on 22' pole. Added custom baffle; all was/is well.
Other pool; 4 fiber spots, 18" below water line; two color; 2-400 watt MH lite boxes. 1" PVC; same deal; this one was visable in daylight.

PS: BEWARE of the low end with the MR16 lamps; had a few complaint calls (thru pool co.) Dissatisfied clients; attempted service, & gave up. Not something we installed.
