DIY Conversion from fluorescent bulb to LED help

Hello,

I am from Michigan the Warren area. Just wanted to say a quick hello before I ask a question and post my first post. I have read and watched many youtube videos on people converting fluorescent bulbs to LED strips that are waterproof and an LED driver to convert an aquarium hood light to LED. But no one explains what has to match between the driver and the LED light strips to make it safe and not burn out the lights or cause a safety hazard. I'm pretty handy so it looks simple but I am not sure to the specs needed to make the matching pair. Thanks for your time and help. Any guidance is appreciated.
