hygger Clip On Full Spectrum Aquarium LED Light, 18W Day-Night Dual Timer Sunrise-Day-Sunset-Moon Fish Tank Light, Adjustable Timer Brightness with 9 Colors for Planted Tank

The media could not be loaded. i have this hygger on my 3 gallon and one of those cheap sub 10 dollar aquarium lights on my 1 gallon tank next to my 3 gallon. is like the hygger is 1080p while my 1 gallon with the cheap light is like 420p. i have a huge chunk of rose quartz in my 1 gallon and i can't even tell it is pink because of the yellow cast on everything in that tank!!. this hygger light is making my water lettuce grow really well. my pennywort loves it too and repens is doing well. the algae growth on my cheap light is also getting out of control while my hygger tank looks clean enough. if you have a smol planted out tank i think this light is enough for medium high, medium, and low light plants. there is one plant in the tank thats not absolutely thriving but thats my fault for getting a mixed mystery plant package from someone off ebay without telling them it's not for a huge deep tank. i think i am going to use the cheap one elsewhere, maybe a baby fish fry tank as it creates alot of algae for the fry and other things to pick at.

I am using these on a couple of smaller tanks, these have a great full spectrum full light if you do not have to penetrate deep tanks. I ma using them on tanks that are no deeper than 13", and I use a couple inches of substrate. That being said, I am having excellent results with vibrantly colored plants, and fish colors are vibrant as well.

Pros: *Very Bright *Dimmable *Timer *Daytime and Moonlight *Color Switching *Fair priceCons: Brackets (the one the holds the light on the tank and the one that holds the light onto the main bracket) the are very annoying because they don't stay on place once you set them up, they are loose and light tilts forward, my tank is a rimless tank, I wish the power cable was in the middle instead of the side, I purchase the light with just one bracket not two I guess it makes sense for the light with two brackets to have the power cable on the side but not for this one. I used a hot glue gun to glue the brackets and keep them on place before putting it up on the tank this way I managed to make it look nice now it looks amazing but you should not do that to make it work though they should make it better and timer instructions are a little confusing... they have a lot to improve but if you are handy you would make it work and look great, probably.

Excellent light for a planted aquarium, taking into account that I have tried other good quality lights I can say that for the price I would buy it again. In my case I received the lights without the clips, nothing that the seller very kindly could not solve, so I also recommend it, the communication with the seller was excellent.

I rated this 3 stars due to several issues I've hard with my light, though I wish there was half stars so I would give 3.5. When I received the unit the buttons on the controls were extremely hard to press in order to change through modes or turn on. So hard in fact that my hands hurt trying to press it. The only way I was able to remedy this defect was to press it with something hard and sharp, which then left an indent in the controls and then made it easier for me to press it with no issue. I realize my light was probably the odd one out with this issue. The plastic screws that hold it up are extremely hard to twist into the holes of the base or out of. This also hurts my hands. I wish this light didn't cause so much physical pain towards me. It also doesnt have a timer like the large Hygger I have on my 40 gallon tank, in which you can press the button to phase through the cycles of the day. The timer is self-paced so you have to set it at whatever time you need it to accordingly because it only has 3, 6, and 9 hour timing options with no way to skip through different phases of a 24 hour cycle like my larger other model does. This is something that I really wish this model had. Nonetheless, it's a beautiful light, and Hygger's products are usually of very top quality. There are just a few quips I have with the way this model was made, but it still serves as a fine bright light for planted aquariums. Hopefully others don't face the same issues.

I originally bought this clip on light for my 20 long and I was so happy with the quality, ease of use/setup/timer but was so impressed by the insane plant growth! In my other tanks with diff lights w/ brackets my plants were barely getting by. My only complaint was having to get creative to fit the brackets on my rimmed tank, but I found a solution! I finally chose purchase this light for my 10 gal and my floating plants have been coming alive again (not to mention the ease of maintenance w/ having a raised light). HIGHLY RECOMMEND especially if you have floaters or use pothos/houseplants to aid in filtration. Couldn’t be happier!

This is a great light! Very bright, I have a betta, some neocaridina shrimp and 3 harlequin rasboras in a 20 gal tank with some plants and everything seems to love the full spectrum. Before this I was just using the light that came on my aquarium lid.I noticed lots of reviews said the instructions were difficult, or that assembly was difficult- either they've addressed this issue or they are exaggerating because I didn't even need the directions to put it together, it's so simple. Definitely recommendable!

Worked awesome for 2 months. Now it will not operate.
