AQUANEAT LED アクアリウムライト フルスペクトル 12インチ 水槽ライト 淡水

La iluminación es muy buena, alumbra muy bien peceras con profundidad. Excelente para plantas de medio a bajo requerimientos!!

I've bought several of these inexpensive LEDs and they work wonderfully. They are durable and have survived several accidental dunks in aquarium water with no problems. They are bright enough to grow most aquarium plants and the light they give off looks great. Light color tends to lean towards the blue side which seems to encourage plant growth rather than algae. The simple on and off switch is perfect for me: I get tired of dealing with complex dimmers and timers built into more expensive aquarium lights so I use digital timers to regulate when my aquarium lights tun on or off. My only complaint is there is no 15-inch model for standard 5.5 gallon aquariums, but the 12-inch does get the job done for a standard 5.5 gallon.

Muy facil para instalar y facil de usar.

I have a 16" betta tank. I did not realize that this light is actually only about 9-1/2" long. The rest is just a retractable arm on either sides to hang onto the tank. The retractable arms are not very secure. When I did chores with the tank, the light fell into the water a couple of times. Water then got inside the glass panel of this light and the led lights started to rust. This light is not as bright as the other led lights because it has less white light to blue/red light ratio. I wanted more blue/red lights so I expected this. My recommendation is that this light is good for perhaps only an 11" or 12" tank or the light will be too short in length (not bright enough) and it will be too easy to fall into the water.

There is now more light than has been in this tank for some time--I have been using a light strip on the hood that was somewhat dimmer and more yellowish for a couple of years. That went out, and I stuck on a pretty dim one that I bought at the same time that I think I took off because I thought it made algae worse---it certainly did this time, I was away for a week and came back to tons of algae even though I had just cleaned the tank out. We'll see how this one does algae wise, it clearly will grow plants better, although all I have in there right now are java fern that did fine under my other light. This bright light now makes me see that I REALLY need to do some work on my plants and possible try some new ones. I mainly decided to give this light a try because I could not find the other light available--although it was not as bright, I was fine with the one I had and simply wanted to replace it, no luck. The last time I bought lights on Amazon I went through three or four before being satisfied with that one. It was just a strip that attached to the hood with velcro. I also tried one of those tube submersible lights--it was OK but grew tons of really long green hair algae right on the tube within days. I am pleased with the light quality of this light--they all claim to be bright, this one really is. There are different colored lights included, but you don't see those, and you can't switch it to that night time blue which is fine because I don't do that anyway. I also like that it is just a simple set up, on and off, with no timer and light level or color settings. I had a difficult time finding one like this!! Most of them have one of the built in timers attached, and just wanted one I could plug into the timer I already have set up. And that's what this did, I just attached it to the hood with velcro, plugged it in and it was on. I really don't need a light with 50 million different settings and won't work with an outside timer. So happy with that feature and wish there was a better selection of lights without a timer. But this brings me to my concern. This light is much nicer visually than the plain light strip that I was using (and that is what I wanted but could not locate). It has a nice black shiny case that will look great--if you have a glass top tank and can attach the feet and put it above the glass. I do not have a glass top and wanted to attach it to the hood as I did. It is larger than the strip I was using, and not really ideal for this at all. In addition, in the product description it says clearly: KEEP LIGHT AWAY FROM SPLASHING WATER. I have concerns that this light is water proof and should not be above open water like this, but I'm doing it anyway for right now. There is glass over the actual lights but it is not sealed, and this will get wet from condensation. It says no where that this light is water proof and I am just not sure. If that is what you are planning to do keep this in mind. Right now I am keeping the water level somewhat lower, I may try to rig something like plastic in between the light and the water--or just get a glass top which I have wanted any way, this tank is off size and it would be a project I am not up for right now. This comes in a plain box with no documentation, so what you have is what is on the product page. If you plan on using this over a glass top, this is a great light and looks really nice as well. It is actually very bright, a nice white light that is going to be good for plants and seeing your fish well. If you are planning on using this in any configuration where it is over open water, you should be aware of this, it does not say that it is water proof or have any language that says so, and I have a hunch that it is not.
