There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I had used $5 timers with $6 dimmers for a while (cheapest I could find). Then I moved up to the Current USA Single Ramp Timers, which are twice the price of these and only have one "On" period. So I was very happy to find that NICREW had released some new timers at half the price of the ones I normally use.
The instructions were pretty good, but they leave out that the timer will start the next programmed section if using the "Sunrise and Sunset" mode. I programmed everything around 4pm so that the lights should have been on at 25% from noon to 5pm (L2). But when I saved my programming, the lights did not turn on until it hit my next programming section (L3) at 5pm. It's not an issue now that I understand it, but I thought it was broken at first.
I really like that I can get a 24-hour effect with the timer. While it doesn't let me control the colors of the light, it does let me run the light at different brightness levels throughout the day. So I can have the light turn on fairly dim in the morning to let me feed fish before going to work. Then I can have it off during the day until I get back home and it can turn on to max brightness then.
The ramp timer also seems to help the fish and shrimp a lot, especially newer ones. When the light suddenly turned on in the past, some of my fish or shrimp would be frightened and dart everywhere or even jump out of the tank. It was sad to lose a few fish and shrimp to that. Once I actually witnessed it, I've decided to only use ramp timers on all of my lights.
Overall, a very nice timer for a very nice price!
====================
Overall, this LED light gives new fish tank owners the best bang for the buck. The competing LED lights are all much more expensive and this LED light fits my tank great with its adjustable brackets that just rest on top of the fish tank cover. Mine is sitting comfortably on top of my Aqueon Versa glass lid and Aqueon 20g long tank.
I have been using this product on my fish tank for almost a month and it has been great! It illuminates my 20g long fish tank entirely and perfectly. I actually thought the tank had constant algae blooms before I got this light. But once I was able to light up the fish tank, I could tell that it was actually just the colors of surrounding objects causing the water in the clear tank to seem green.
In addition, my 5 plants (anubias nana, dwarf lily, temple plant, rosette sword, & java fern) have been prospering under this LED light in my low-tech tank as well. My dwarf lily actually grew 5 lily pads to the surface of my tank over the course of 2 weeks! To be fair, all of those plants are low to medium light.
Also, the customer service is amazing! I contacted them about the cost for a power adapter replacement for a light that was not under warranty and they responded within one day and are shipping me a free one!
The only thing I would change about this LED light is making it so the brackets do not slide out of the light. However, I would gladly settle for a lower price rather than that minor inconvenience that I only ran into while taking it out of its package.
LED Aquarium Hood Lighting Fish Tank Light for Freshwater and Saltwater, Blue and White Light
My standard 10 gallon tank's hood finally crapped out on me. It was your standard 15W, 18" T-8 fluorescent light hood which served me well for over 20 years. But now was an opportunity to upgrade. I do grow easy low light plants in my tanks so I wanted to upgrade to LEDs but also needed to make sure the light was at least equal in brightness to a standard 15W T-8, which is roughly 800 lumens. This light is noticeably brighter with a very natural sunlight look (I was worried it would be too blue looking but it isn't). I tend to buy 5000K lamps and find ones upwards of 6500L+ to be much too blue for my liking. This hood appears very much in the 5000K to 6000K region I prefer so very happy there.
A standard 10 gallon is about 20 inches long, so one might think the smaller version, the 11-19" model is just right. And if you don't group any live plants that model is probably going to be perfect for most people. But if you have any ideas of growing any sort of live plants, then I would strongly suggest the 20-27" model is the way to go. It fits a standard 10-gallon tank perfectly, stretching across the entire length and still a enough room on each side for the legs to sit on the tank edges.
This particular tanks is neither heated (I keep common guppies in it which do well in cool tanks) nor does it house any fish known to be jumpers. So with this new light I opted to remove the entire hood and am running the light over open water (I have a 30 gallon I have run this way for years without issue). However if you have a full hood with the removable light strip on it (fairly standard), you can use this light with the hood. You just position it over the glass strip where the old strip light used to sit. It does sit a few inches over the glass so I think too much light is lost to the room rather than directed down, but it will work fine if you need to keep heat or jumpers in the tank.
Attached photos are to show 1) how well the light fits over a standard 10-gallon (using no glass or hood), 2) How nice the light looks in my planted tank (yes the java moss needs to be thinned out a LOT) 3) how the feet of this light sit on the plastic trim piece of a standard glass aquarium, and 4) how high above the water/hood/glass the light will sit.
One thing to keep in mind is that if you use this over a glass top, a lot of light is likely to be reflected up into the room making for a brighter room that just what a lit tank would normally add.

Based upon my experience so far, I would definitely recommend this light to anyone looking for a high-quality, low-maintenance lighting solution for their tank.

- Pretty solid, sleek and simple looking LED light.
- Legs are barely extended to accommodate my 20 long and in this configuration the light rests solidly on the tank, and for my tank it's working great.
-However, the legs dont lock in place so on larger tanks I'm not sure how sturdy they would be. I would probably hang or build them into a canopy, but that's just me.
- The white LED's light my tank well, and the blue lights are significantly brighter than I expected them to be, but this is probably in part because of how shallow my tank is. So far no algae growth, but I don't run them for very long.
- I haven't added plants yet so I can't confirm this, but I am fairly confident that they'll support low light plants like ferns and anubias.
OVERALL
I've had aquariums for over 10 years, and used to sell aquariums and equipment and I'd buy this light again. Its working great, looks great and was cheaper than all the local stores in my area, even with shipping costs.
