This lantern was definitely a good buy, we needed a 72 inch lantern and it was one of the few lamps of this size that didn't cost hundreds of dollars. I'm attaching pictures of natural light versus lights on and you can see the light popping the tank. At night I turn on the blue light and it also looks very nice. The algae have run out in my aquarium! I clean and change the water weekly so algae is not a maintenance issue. Therefore, I would advise against leaving it on for several hours a day. Nevertheless, it has a high value and is worth the money.
