Perfect fit for my 20 gallon Aqueon

When we bought the Aqueon we bought another light that we were sure would fit our tank. We have a black bezel on top and the light clip was too small. Bought from Revain and it fits perfectly! Nice light and fits my 20 gallon tank. Plus half the cost of the other lamp we brought back to the store.

Pros
  • Best in the niche
Cons
  • Other

Great for the price

I have this light on a 12 inch cube tank and it is definitely bright enough to grow plants and light up fish. I mainly grow a carpet of s.repens along with some japonica, bryozoans and dwarf grass. All plants look good and grow fast. The light stays on the glass (rimless aquarium) with no problems and doesn't move at all. The touch controls are simple and effective. For growing live plants, I wouldn't recommend this light for a 10+ gallon tank without a second, although for fish and artificialโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Packaging is ugly

Great value for high performance PAR

This unit has a nice metal construction and is relatively inexpensive for a beginner hobbyist. The downside is that there are only 3 modes (Blue + White) OR Moonlight (Blue only) OR Off. Although advertised for aquariums up to 20 gallons, this mount is only 8 inches long. It's also worth noting that the distance from the edge of the mount to the center of the LEDs is 5 inches (see images). Measure your tank to see if this light is right for you. The tested color value is around 6000-7000Kโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Perfect for a 5 gallon tank!

Love this light so far! I have a 5 gallon planted aquarium. Although I only installed the light today, I can say the following: Pros: 1. Perfect amount of light for 5 gallons2. Suitable for rims with extra space to save 3. Easy to assemble (bolts in from the inside of the tank, not the outside. I read the reviews and realized that people screwing it in from the back would have a lot of heartache, so did I avoided that in the beginning and had no trouble mounting the light!) 3. The blue light is

GREAT PLANT LIGHTING WITHOUT CHANGING YOUR MIND

The first lantern was included in the shrimp tank. I didn't think there was enough light for the plants with this tank size so I used it in another tank and placed a more powerful light over the shrimp tank. I had a lot of problems with algae, too many problems with my stronger light so I put this Aqueon light back over my tank and reduced the light time to 8 hours a day and the plants grew really well with no algae. So I bought two more and use them in all aquariums now because they reallyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.

It might have been perfect, but it wasn't well thought out. Shame

Well if you use this light in an open aquarium it's 5 stars. It's bright, stylish and very beautiful. The cable is not visible and is also strong. I think people say it's weak because they don't understand that you have to remove the plastic screw and put it on the other side with the water side screw. So it holds up perfectly, I was convinced of that from my own experience. I don't know why the other way around, probably for rimless aquariums. Okay the main downside is like me you have anโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for me

  • Protection

So far so good with Fish & Aquatic Pets

aquarium lighting. I have a 20 gallon aqueon aquarium and an aqueon glass canopy. I have 2 Javanese 'Windelov' ferns growing on coconut shell halves and a large Subvassertanga bush. I'm sure they will grow well under this light. When I lift the front of the glass container to feed the fish I have to hold it open with one hand while trying to feed the fish with the other. This is the first gas cap that does not support itself in the open position. I think that he would support himself if thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • Speed
