AQUANEAT LED Aquarium Light Full Spectrum for 18 Inch to 24 Inch Fish Tank Light Fresh Water

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.

Package came on time and very well packaged. The light came in a sturdy plastic case, I really appreciate the great packaging and care in shipping. Shows me that they are serious about their product and customer satisfaction. Have never received a better box! The light is a perfect fit on my 75 long aquarium. The color of the light is slightly yellower than I expected but lights the tank perfectly. Love the simplicity of just an on off switch. This is my second purchase of lights from this seller and I will be using them from now on for all of my aquarium light needs. The first light was for a 10 gallon and it is perfect too. Have had it for just over 4 months and it has worked very well. As long as they last a good long while, no complaints and for the price the lights are awesome. Highly reccomend this seller and brand.

This AQUANEAT LED light is perfect for small to medium tanks. The full spectrum lighting really brings out the colors of fish and plants, and it helps promote healthy plant growth. The adjustable brackets make it easy to fit tanks between 18 and 24 inches, and installation is quick. It’s energy-efficient and runs cool, so no overheating issues. Great for freshwater setups and ideal for anyone looking for a reliable, budget-friendly aquarium light.

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.

I just bought my second one, the fist estimate one has been on my aquarium for over a year and works great, it's bright, even lighting and the plants like it. although over the last year 2 or 3 of the LED'S have stopped working, but its isn't noticeable dimer because of hoe many there are. hood for the price .

Awesome bright light i bought 4 of them and 2 went on my African cichlid tank and lights is very well and their colors looks amazing with the light

I think this light is worth its price. I have bought it two times, i used the first one for about 9-10 months until the LED starts to be broken so i replace with the second one. The brightness is about right and suitable for my tank.

Good light but gets warm. There is only one level and it’s bright and hot. Just plug and play. Easy to setup. Wish cable was a little longer. But whatever. I can see this being good for starting to grow plants. But for small tanks, can be a little too much. Has a good spectrum for plants and wildlife. I think because it gets off so much heat. Would be better for reptiles as well. Not to use a heat lamp. But it does get warm. I used for small 2 gallon tank for shrimp and lit the tank up very well. Maybe too bright.

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

Muy facil para instalar y facil de usar.

Es una lampara básica, hace su función, es de plástico más no se calienta como tal. La recomiendo.

So Happy with this LED light fixture Finally a Light Fixture that performs properly. I will definitely buy from this supplier in the future. Light seemed a bit less than expected. Then I realized that my aquarium is Very heavily planted!! LOOKS GREAT

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.
