This is Arduino UNO Arduinix Nixie Tube drive code that also attempts to drive some NeoPixel Flora v2.

// This code was taken and modified from http://www.arduinix.com/Main/Code/ANX_IN-17x8_v1.0.txt
// Fading transitions sketch for 8-tube board with default connections.
// based on 6-tube sketch by Emblazed
// 01/28/2013 - expanded to 8 digit crossfade by Brad L.
// 06/16/2011 - 4-tube-itized by Dave B.
//
// 08/19/2011 - modded for six bulb board, hours, minutes, seconds by Brad L.
//
// 09/03/2010 - Added Poxin's 12 hour setting for removing 00 from hours when set to 12 hour time
//
// 01/31/2021 - Attempted to add NeoPixel Flora v2 LEDS. See https://www.adafruit.com/product/1260

// Parameter 1 = number of pixels in strip
// Parameter 2 = Arduino pin number (most are valid)
// Parameter 3 = pixel type flags, add together as needed:
// NEO_KHZ800 800 KHz bitstream (most NeoPixel products w/WS2812 LEDs)
// NEO_KHZ400 400 KHz (classic 'v1' (not v2) FLORA pixels, WS2811 drivers)
// NEO_GRB Pixels are wired for GRB bitstream (most NeoPixel products)
// NEO_RGB Pixels are wired for RGB bitstream (v1 FLORA pixels, not v2)
// NEO_RGBW Pixels are wired for RGBW bitstream (NeoPixel RGBW products)
#define PIN 16 // Analog pin A2
Adafruit_NeoPixel strip = Adafruit_NeoPixel(2, PIN, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800);
// IMPORTANT: To reduce NeoPixel burnout risk, add 1000 uF capacitor across
// pixel power leads, add 300 - 500 Ohm resistor on first pixel's data input
// and minimize distance between Arduino and first pixel. Avoid connecting
// on a live circuit...if you must, connect GND first.
