Improved LED Lights
PostedOctober 4, 2012
bluegeckoyoga
from Austin, TX
This is the second set of Marineland Double Bright Lights that I have bought. The design of the lights has changed in the past year. Now there are fewer but larger individual lights instead of many small ones. The light quality is better, and it is brighter than before. I don't use the moonlight night setting, however, because it keeps some of my fish awake when normally they would be sleeping. LED lights are a good option compared with florescent bulbs, which can contaminate the environment with mercury.

Great!

40GallonTank
from Iowa
I purchased the light in September and ever sense than it has been working great!
There are 2 options for the lighting, one is white light for day time lighting and another option is blue lighting for night time lighting. There are only a few LEDs that turn on for the blue light which gives the tank a great look at night.
Over all I have not had any problems with it, has legs that extend out a few inches on both sides to easily adjust to the tank.
Great light!

LED's create beautiful lighting

from Lee's Summit, MO
"Bright Light" is what this system produces. The white side is too bright for my marine fish, they hide all day. The blue side is too dim to see the fish. Wish there was a higher ratio of blues to whites LED's. It is a high quality fixture. I opted to return and get the next higher priced system with more power and timer options. It is FANTASTIC.

LED Lighting for low costs

FastWalker
from Warrenville, Il
Nice light for a Fish Tank. Lacks umph needed for a Coral Reef Tank. You need a few more to provide enough light for a reef. No seperate control for blue light so you need a seperate blue light for your tank to have night and day setup.
1/10 the cost to run compared to anything else plus no chiller needed cause the LED runs cool.
Want to save cash switch to LED and sell your other lights!
A built in timer is nice but not for a hundred bucks more come on Marineland really a hundred dollars more?

Super thin and low power love it. not a fan of one switch for both blue and white light takes away ability for timer unless you don't want blue lights on during the night. Brings a good shimmer to the water looks more real. would recommend something more powerful for corals and anemones.

I ordered this light system for my 46 gallon bow-front aquarium. It looks really nice and plenty bright for my plants and fish and the lunar mode is really cool. I highly recommend Marineland products with Petco prices...you can't go wrong.

We replaced the cheaper hood light that came
with the SeaClear 36 Gallon fish tank.
This is superior to what came with it.
Would recommend this anytime.
Glad we purchased it and got rid of the
cheaper one that came with it.

I am so happy with this product; I used it to retrofit and replace a fluorescent fixture which I didn't even use yet. I have the 24"-36" size and it is perfect for my new SeaClear 36g bowfront aquarium. It offers perfect illumination for both day and night viewing. I only just got it, so we'll see if it lasts for the 17,000 hours it claims.
I do supplement with Marina submersible red and green lighting to give even more dramatic effect and visual of the fish swimming during evening and early morning before the white lights turn on.

Beautiful lighting.

Very awesome lighting, adds a nice shadowing and shimmer effect, feels more natural, reminds me of zoo aquarium lighting. My Neons and Dwarf Ram Cichlids colors pop out more now. It's bright enough in my 16'' depth tank that its more or less the same brightness as a 21watt tube I had on the tank, but my nocturnal critters pop their head out more because of the shadows.
My biggest gripe with it however is the lack of rubber feet/grips on the actual fixture to prevent it from sliding around should you remove the feet, and for that matter it doesn't have rubber grips on the legs, so it slides around very easily, to easily IMO. (could be a plus if it covers your feeding holes, but for me its a con) Legs take a lot of force to adjust/remove.
As a couple ppl said, get the one that it's minimum is your tank length, so if you have a 36'' tank, get the 36''- 48'', NOT the 24''- 36'' or you'll have dark sides, unless your going for that look.

LED Double Bright Lights

Aquena
from Cape Cod, MA
Price could not be beat, although I did purchase these on sale from PetCo. I purchased 2 set's for both sides of my 50 gallon tank. I highly recommend these lights, LED's stay cool to the touch, the blue-moonlight is great for evening viewing, and really lights up my Glo-fish and assorted Neon Tetra's. High quality metal case resistant to water, you can either use included adjustable stand or remove the stand and lay lights directly on glass or plastic/acrylic clear tank hood surface. I like the Marineland Brand and have had no problems.

Not exactly what was expected from the description
PostedNovember 7, 2010
nicknameInsertHere
The fixture is sleek, produces very low heat and gives a nice shimmering effect. Now, that it fits tanks from 18 to 24 inches long is not quite true in my opinion. The actual lamp fits top of my 5.5 G tank, which is 16 inches long, from end to end with its legs over-hanging on the sides. Still the LEDs are well within the edges of the tank. 2-5/8 inches from the edge to be more accurate. I planned to use this on a 15 G planted tank (low light) but to me it seems that 24 inches is too much of a stretch for the lamp and that the sides of the tank will be too dark... I'll have to downgrade to a 10 G and see if the lamp works. Another thing that was a disappointment is the moonlights. They are wired to the same switch as the white LEDs so you can't control them separately with a timer and get that nice "night time" effect if wanted. Unless you are willing to do that manually... So to me they are a waste of extra money (for the buyer who pays for them in the end). In conclusion, to me is not a great product and perhaps not even a good product due to the price...

I love this product, looks so much better than the light that came with my tank. Makes my axolotls pop and is very nice to have the black light switch too, it makes my glowing axolotls glow! Would be great for Glo-fish! Worth every penny!

I was really disapointed when I found out that the light itself doesn't stretch to each side of my 4 foot tank, only the legs do. Also, it produces a pretty shimmering light. If you plan to do a reef tank don't even think about this light. Not even close to being powerful enough for corals.

Really good light

BigDaddy44
from St Louis, MO
This is a really nice light. Has two settings - daylight and moonlight. It sits high off the canopy so water does not splash on it. It would be nice if they built in a way for the light to automatically swtich from daytime to moonight. IThe price was a bit expensive given that everything is manual, but the unit will pay for itself by saving electricity. I gave it a "4" because changing the light is manual.. If the next verson comes out with an automatic light changer, I would give it a "5".

Great product! My aquarium never looked better. The only thing I noticed, most of the fish no longer come to the surface to feed. They swim around waiting for the food to fall. I don't know if the LEDs are too harsh for them or they just haven't gotten used to a different light yet.
