    Just remember, Excel is NOT a CO² Supplement.. it's more of a sterilizer than anything else. Dose your tank with adaquit liquid ferts.

    Im a poor student and this clearly works on well on your tank.... so!!! I have a 10 gallon no fish yet just want to set plants up first and Im going to put one of these clamp lamps with same bulb on it. Thanks to your advice. Especially because tank lights can be so expensive like whaaat. wish me luck.

    If you're in the US, Harbor Freight has 10k lumen 5000k LED shop lights for $50. SKU is 56780. They are linkable with power cables so you can string a few lights together for multiple tanks on one switch. Also these lamps arent available, and similar ones are now $27...

    I like where you’re going. I don’t like that there’s not much keeping those lights from flopping over in the tank when no one’s home. Odds are it throws the breaker, fries a couple fish max, but still, makes me leery

    Hi. I just added 2 of these lights to my tank. I only have 3 plants so I thought 4 might be a bit much. It's a 75 gallon tank. Do you think that's enough? It seems super bright and I'm wondering if 4 would be harmful to my fish. Any input you could provide would be appreciated.

    I would properly make a wall mount, for the lights, and put a glass lit on the aquarium, just for safety.

  • @pershop4950
    @pershop4950 3 роки тому

    i do agree that there are many cheaper but still effective options for plant lights or aquarium plant lights, compared to what is marketed as an aquarium plant light and the hefty price for it. I'm more paranoid about electricity and water contact, even splashing water, so I'd set the lights up a little higher for my tank, which means clipping the lights onto some other object besides the side of the tank, but otherwise, that idea is sound and very effective.

    I do use these type of diy but they produce heat and my concern is when those little waters evaporate they will get into your electrical system and you or my system could get us electrocuted. I believe this is not a long term solution.

    • @strawberryyogurt0

      @Anthony Rai ... Can’t use find a plastic sheet that covers the majority to the top of your tank, or use saran wrap.

    • @guidryaquatics
      @guidryaquatics 2 роки тому

      Um.....if you have any standard lid, its not an issue(or even without one come to think of it.) You are not going to get electrocuted. Just use LED lights. They dont produce heat and even the natural evaporation of water will NOT build up enough on the light to cause electrocution. Think about it...outdoor porch and landscape lights, streetlights, signs etc get rained on all the time. No one dies, lol

    Yes but I’m just seeing that I have baby angel fish in my tank. After almost wanted to give away these to Angels because they killed my other two angels. I’m just now seeing it because there’s babies. So I can’t take them out of the tank because they’re on top of my house

  • @leesahcage3297

    This is a great solution for great lighting especially if you are on a budget. I have a Nicrew Classic Gen 2 on side of my 75 gallon tank and two of those clip on lights on the other side and they are just as bright as the side with Nicrew lighting.

  • @Megatog615
    @Megatog615 4 роки тому

    I like this style of light but I wish some company would make a waterproof version. Seems too risky to me, even with a glass top.

    • @pershop4950
      @pershop4950 3 роки тому

      Just put the light up higher. That means less effective power but for the sake of feeling safer, it could be a good trade-off.

    You said you didn't have 200$ to spend on aquarium light but that's pretty much what you ended up paying for this setup right?

    • @trevortheclever1689

      No... he tells you all the prices...

    • @pershop4950
      @pershop4950 3 роки тому

      $15 x 4 bulbs, $7.50 x 2 bulbs, and $9 x 6 clip lights, so about $129. Saved $71 (though he got the 4-pack on sale for $10 but I'm calculating with the normal price in case others don't get it for $10) However, in reality, the setup could probably be OK with less clip lights (eg, maybe 4 instead of 6). However, with 6, he definitely has a good tank to prove that 6 is really good. But the main idea is, like the video says, the bulb is the important thing. Whatever you find that is cheaper or more expensive or more DIY or less DIY work to mount the lights, is up to you.
