Great product, not very well finished.

This hood is exactly the same as my original Aqueon fluorescent hood, just with a different lamp. I could just swap the bulbs and that's it. My original hood had the infamous broken hinge so I replaced everything. I bought a 30"20" long and it fits perfectly as before. It comes with a daylight bulb and can accommodate a second bulb. I personally find that one lamp is bright enough. It also has several blue LEDs built in. Hood even for night mode. I won't use this because it's an output timer…

Pros
  • Produces virtually no heat and uses very little power
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

The Aqueon LED Background Hood was a good buy for me. I had to replace the hood and strip on my 55 gallon Aqueon tank with fluorescent ones. I figured if I had to replace it I might as well go for the LED version as it saves me the expense of replacing the fluorescent tubes over and over again over the life of the aquarium. It was a great purchase. It fits perfectly and exactly with the old tank light kit. The plastic is the same. It's thick, strong and solid. The quality is 100% good. I have…

Pros
  • Holds up to two LED lights
Cons
  • Only available in black

Great lens hood, great performance

I bought this lens hood to replace an old fluorescent lens hood that I've had for a while. This hood is superb. In terms of aesthetics, the hood itself is what you might expect. It's mostly black plastic with a glass panel to protect the highlights. My only concern is the plastic hinges that allow the front to be raised (for cleaning and feeding). My old hood had very similar hinges, both of which broke over time. I've only had the product for a little over a week, so I can't comment on…

Pros
  • Easy to install waterproof lighting solution
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
