Duff0712 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I am going to redo my 12g long and want to set it up with an inexpensive LED light. I will only have moss, anubias, ferns, and buces. It doesn't have to be intense. Any ideas? -Duffy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomCruise Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 These aren't LED, but super cheap and high light output. I used to use LED, but when I found these I realized there was no need for LED for my 10 gal. My tanks are planted and there is plenty of light for them. Also smaller than most LED bars. 34 bucks http://americanaquariumproducts.com/Aquariumbulb.html Duff0712 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadenlea Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I have a finnex also when I needed a cheap light. grows plants fine. I will say it died on me within a year but customer service fixed it free and sent it back and its worked fine since. It was probably a fluke or maybe I got some water on it . I always like a company who backs their product though and Finnex did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockadoodle Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Where can you find a model that fits the 12 gal long of Chihiros A-series LED Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrimp Life Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 I have these and i love them. I've bought alot of lights and these seem to be the best bang for the buck, they are sleek in design, nice lighting for shrimp and grows plants. Plus low power consumption. ONLY 1 left! LOL hurry! They were out of stock on this item last month when I needed one... This will look nice on that tank and wont be too big and bulky. http://www.ebay.com/itm/EA-90-6500K-LED-36-0-50W-60x-LEDs-Aquarium-Light-Freshwater-Plant-Discus-Tetra-/291415747795?hash=item43d9bb6cd3:g:0acAAOSwNSxVEtbY warlock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricM Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 How are those growing plants? -Duffy no idea. I only house low light plants like moss/buce and works fine for those. warlock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrimp Life Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 the light I recommended is better then the beamsworks one * in my personal opinion, I own both* plus the one I mentioned is the best priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
repsaJ Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 How are those growing plants? -Duffy It would put you at 'high lighting' with that pent over a 12 gallon long. Grows plants wonderfully, though you would need co2 to use the light at full strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crackhead Johny Posted April 1, 2016 Report Share Posted April 1, 2016 I'm looking at a spool of LED lights in my living room (impulse buy that never got used) and wondering if I can make a hood with it. Maybe wrap it around PVC and mirror the inside of the hood? The remote would allow for fish/shrimp light shows. gillznglass and Soothing Shrimp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
