Rachel O'leary I have two 30 watters with cree leds on my 29 planted aquarium and my dwarf hairgrass covered the substrate in less than a month. the lights were only $21 a piece on Amazon and they are made by solla, same company that makes the one in this vid. they are just amazing!!
Rachel O'leary love your species spotlights btw, can't get enough, and I was curious if you will always be doing nano type fish or if you plan on branching out to bigger species in the future. either way I will keep watching as long as you keep putting them out lol
Having been busy with work and family, it has been a while since I've seen a video from you. I forgot how much of a fan I was until "Hi everybody. Joey here again and welcome back. " put a random smile on my face.
Your book is awesome.. Very simple but includes almost whatever your would need to build or want to do in the freshwater arena... Thanks for your videos and for your book!!!
Been watching this channel from the start. This channel has also helped me with so much in my tanks. I had to get rid of my 75G and it killed me a little inside. This channel helps keep my fish urge under control.
I realize this vid is from 2016 but I love the fact you keep such a diverse collection of fish. I mean you keep a exotic next to your basic fancy goldfish and it just has a harmony. :)
Ever thought of building a paludarium? I know you're not familiar with frogs and reptiles but I'm sure you'll like a new experience. Try searching it up they look amazing!
I wonder, I've added y splitter to hook up C02 into my tank by "sharing" the same tank that my grandmother oxygen tank is, so what if she has slightly more trouble breathing, my plants are worth it, no? just kidding folks, relax
I have to say that you make something, that most of us think is rather easy but like most of us we can't appreciate complexity of it. Your doing a fantastic job of engaging the under educated audience. A-side from me owning a fish tank as a kid I'm inspired to learn more and try and build my own tank. Keep doing what your doing.
Im airing this video a few weeks early for you guys! I rushed to get this done in time, but will revisit it with results. With that said, the fully DIY nano tank build will be out first showcasing this same light and the growth i get with it.
I got 3 of these 15 watt on my planted tank and they do the job perfectly my tank is 120x45x45 cm man I'm even building on for my reef tank, maybe using 4 of 6500K and 4 of the blue colors led flood lights. in the near future, wish I could add a pic for my setup in here, but maybe I'll send it on Facebook or Instagram. keep up the good work man as I say always you are an inspiration
never fail to be impressed by your videos. I never have owned fish or the like and generally speaking I'm not all that interested in them. I only mention this to highlight the quality of your output as you have me hooked! Thank you for doing what you do.
Thanks for the video Joey! I have two 50w LED floods I was going to use on my 40g but I didn't have room to mount them on the shelf I have so I was planning to save them for my 60g build (I also need them to be water poof for what i plan to build on top of the tank). I need to get a PAR meter as I'm interested to see what kind of PAR these things will put out was which depth. Lux won't measure the actual light the plants get and uses but it's an idea. Very interesting you went with the flood light option!
Great video and what a good idea to use an LED floodlight. As an electrician can I just say though if you are going to wire this up yourself please be extra careful as these are mains voltage (230v in the UK 110v US) lights and what with being right above a tank full of water make sure you have an RCD or ground fault device? in the US on that circuit. I think purpose-made tank lights are ELV so 12v, so if something did go wrong this wouldn't hurt you like a mains voltage light! If in doubt please do not do this yourself if you are not confident. Now to give this a go myself off to the wholesaler lol.
I have been looking for a pendant style light for a Nano aquarium forever. This is prefect! Keep up the good work. I can't wait to see what you start making after your visit with Brian Barczyk.
hey joey, i dont know about the planted aquarium hobby but reef enthusiasts generally view a shimmer as desirable, as long as it doesnt create a discoball like effect. kessils have what seems to be the nices shimmer of any of the light i have seen
I was doing some research and i found this. You can buy different flood light depending on your tank. Color: Cool white (6000-6500k) Warm White (3000-3500k) High Color Temperature 10000k (used for coral reef or fish tank) High Color Temperature 20000k (used for coral reef or fish tank) Natural White (4000-5000k) Dark Red 660nm (used for plant growth) Royal Blue 445-450nm (for plant growth) 400-480nm(for plant growth)
Nice Video. I have a such light on my 112l Brackish tank. I Just have a few plants in the tank. I just tried it out because it was cheap but I it will be my 1st joice in the future.
This looks like a nice result. If you are ever up for it I would be keen to see a build using high CRI surface mounted device LEDs. I would recommend Yuji's high CRI emitters, however they appear to be sold in minimum 100 piece orders. Maybe something to think about?
Another good cheap option for nano planted tanks are GE Reveal LED bulbs. Very cheap, and have excellent CRI ratings. The reveals complement plants with color as opposed to just an all green planted tank
Take your time man, you put out quality content and people need to respect that it might take a while before you can make a video for us. Keep up the great work!
Great video Joey! It was very interesting and informative! I was looking for a cheap way to grow plants with and led! I currently have a led grow light in the middle of 2 10 gallon planted tanks. This seems like a better option then running 2 grow lights to get adequate coverage! At $20 a Piece! Thanks for sharing!!
Nice build! I just use one of the PAR20 5000k LEDs like you used on the Arowana tank with an inline dimmer. Still cheap and works great, probably a better idea for a really small tank like my 5 gallon since you can actually dim it.
Joey, couldn't you wire a potentiometer on that flood light? I don't fullly understand LEDs since its been 15 years since college but I would think that there is a device like a potentiometer to be able to control the LEDs brightness.
its normal for the inner plants of rotala to die off. its never really going to stop. so just keep triming like you normally do and it will look better over time
Just a small tip from a DIY "maximum efficiency" nerd... a very simple way to make sure you're getting the most out of your lights is to make sure they're heatsinked effectively. It looks like the rear of those lights is already a massive heatsink. If you grab some really efficient thermal compound (I think I found 25g of 5+ w/mk for $6 on amazon) and slap it between the light and heatsink, it will transmit the heat MUCH better (most cheap solutions like that use awful thermal compound, if they use it at all. And often they don't even attach the heat-generating component to the heatsink, defeating the purpose entirely). You can also get a cheap light dimmer (or motor control knob) for it to adjust the brightness easily. Even possibly getting one that gives you a little room over 100% to really max out the brightness. And since it's now heatsinked properly, itwill last longer @ 110% than if you left it stock. (sorry that was so long. Just wanted to properly explain myself)
Hello, I'm a big fan of your work and I always like to watch your videos. I have a question about light. I have a new tank witch is 100cm x 50cm x 60cm height. Do you think it will be enough 2x50w flood lights for plants or is it to much? Each light is rated for 5000lm, 6000-6500k. Thank you so much.
Did you run a watt meter on your LED flood light? A lot of the floods on Amazon and Ebay they sell will state 20, 30 or 50 watts but will pull significantly less, either they are putting cheaper LED's in them or the drivers aren't rated for the lights. The 20's I got were pulling 10 and 11 watts, the 50's I got were pulling 42 and 46. Also if you open them up, most of them are not grounded inside, they just leave the wire hanging.
This may be a bad idea, but is it possible to attach the cord in such a way that one outlet plug would supply light to multiple floodlights shown in this video? Don't know a lot about electrical stuff, but am interested in tinkering with such projects so I am simply aiming to learn something additional from this video. Thank you!
Yeah, that would work! Though, admittedly I was thinking more along the lines of a string of Christmas lights, where each light was another place you could plug into and receive power for a piece of equipment or light :-)
Hello, I'm really hoping that you can give me some advice on diy lighting. I'm currently working on a 240 litre goldfish aquarium. The dimensions are 36"L x 15" D x 30" H. I'm looking to grow anubias, Java Ferns and Bobytis. I have found some RGBW 30W led floodlights with 6500K. The reason I am thinking of these is because I can turn on the blue light at night. My head is spinning from all the videos etc I've been watching and I can't seem to be able to find anything on lighting a deep aquarium. Do you think 2 or 3 of these would work or will it be total overkill? I don't have a huge budget and I love building stuff myself. I would be really grateful if you could help me out on this one.
Some of the other manufacturing types have a denser LED chip cluster, that would provide a more definitive 'shimmer' effect. I have managed to get 3x 10w 6500k for less than $5 on Ebay. and RGB versions are also available. From what research I've done on LED floodlight in the aqua hobby, the ratted wattage is overstated. with most operating at less than 50% stated wattage to provide longer LED lifespan. 10w are ok for smaller/nano tanks with up to 15" depth. 20/30w will manage plant growth between 15"-30". over 2ftsq you will need 50w+. (For Plants) I have also seen reef keepers use these in the 10000k-20000k (more expensive) in saltwater and RGB in Refugiums. For longer tanks its probably best to purchase more smaller wattage floodlights to spread light footprint, also helps if 1 light decides to die it can be replaced without removing all light source. However there is no doubt that these can grow plants.
Joey, i love the led flood lights, i think i may go that way in the near future.You mentioned you got them on amazon, is that the only place you could find them? Rona, Lowes, Home Depot maybe, or are they a specialty item?
do you have any issues with heat? i got mine on ebay brand name Solla 30W and looks excactly like yours, mine is just sitting on top on some glass and i went to move it so i could work on the tank and it was pretty hot to the touch, a lil too hot and i had the bracket folded down so had to wait a few minutes for it to cool down to be able to touch without burning myself
do you think 2 15w ones would work for a 22in tall 37gal? a corner dose get natural sunlight so more light hungry plants go there. its a low tech tank.
Hope you can add links to the description for future videos I think it would be very convenient. Great video though thanks for the cheaper alternative.
Hello... I have planted tank same as urs above... L w h... 22* 12 * 13 inch... Here we have flood lights as well as led 💡. ...how much Watt I should use in both cases. Please let me know. Thanks.
Hello, I will try to keep this short. I got a 30 gallon tank, that I left with my family to take care of well I was away, for about 4 years. They maybe cleaned it about 8 times. Now I'm back, and I'm changing the water about 25%, once a week. And the ammonia levels are very high. I only got two fish, a blood parrot cichlid, and a rainbow shark. Should I keep doing 25% water changes or completely start over? Thank you are reading.
I'm using the floodlights on my cichlids tank. they are great solutions, however they speed up algae growth on the walls (due to the fact that the light spreads). I just turn it on for about 4-5 hours a day
Hi! My tank seems to be a bit cloudy, my fish seem fine and it has been like that for 3 weeks. I have 2 Fancy goldfish ( A black moore and a oranda), 4 Danios and a snail. What do you recommend i do?
Try the water polisher he made, or add an extra filter until it clears up. If you didn't wash off all the stuff in the tank like gravel it could be small particles. He has a lot of cheap filters that you could make to help the remove the cloudiness.
I am exceptionally geeked about this video. I want to try it on a lot of my tanks- seems like a really great solution. Thanks Joey!
Rachel O'leary I have two 30 watters with cree leds on my 29 planted aquarium and my dwarf hairgrass covered the substrate in less than a month. the lights were only $21 a piece on Amazon and they are made by solla, same company that makes the one in this vid. they are just amazing!!

@@The_Scriggles long shot but do you still have the amazon link to the lights you got?

Joey you make the hobby more fun and affordable for a lot of us.I just wanted to say thank you so much for what you have done for us!
Again you are helping me build the BEST budget bioactive reptile vivarium . Thank you so much .
Your book is awesome.. Very simple but includes almost whatever your would need to build or want to do in the freshwater arena... Thanks for your videos and for your book!!!
surely you are the KING OF DIY
long live the king
Been watching this channel from the start. This channel has also helped me with so much in my tanks. I had to get rid of my 75G and it killed me a little inside. This channel helps keep my fish urge under control.
This is exactly what I'm looking for my 35 gallon planted tank! Thank you for posting this. I'm looking forward to part two of this video.
I realize this vid is from 2016 but I love the fact you keep such a diverse collection of fish. I mean you keep a exotic next to your basic fancy goldfish and it just has a harmony. :)
Pre-frank king of diy popped up on my feed? No prob.
Miss the script, but at the same time I understand, seeing you smile and be real is priceless. 🙂😉
Ever thought of building a paludarium? I know you're not familiar with frogs and reptiles but I'm sure you'll like a new experience. Try searching it up they look amazing!
I am into that stuff
theres A LOT less maintenance with paludariums and vivariums when compared to aquariums. and you can get very creative
you always bring the best for the novice aquarist; thank you
I wonder, I've added y splitter to hook up C02 into my tank by "sharing" the same tank that my grandmother oxygen tank is, so what if she has slightly more trouble breathing, my plants are worth it, no? just kidding folks, relax

I would never have thought of looking for an led 6k floodlight. Tons of them on ebay. Thanks for that creative idea :)
Im airing this video a few weeks early for you guys! I rushed to get this done in time, but will revisit it with results. With that said, the fully DIY nano tank build will be out first showcasing this same light and the growth i get with it.
Any plans on live streaming in the future. That would be cool :) thx for releasing the vid early!!
Hello, Flynn. :D lol
this is my favorite channel ive ben watching this from the beginning keep up the good work
Hi Josh :) LOL
Thanks Joey! Really appreciate it!
I got 3 of these 15 watt on my planted tank
and they do the job perfectly
my tank is 120x45x45 cm
man I'm even building on for my reef tank, maybe using 4 of 6500K and 4 of the blue colors led flood lights. in the near future,
wish I could add a pic for my setup in here, but maybe I'll send it on Facebook or Instagram.

king of diy you make great videos you should make more videos a week.keep up the work
+Snappy 6 thanks! I make 2 videos a week right now.
I have been looking for a pendant style light for a Nano aquarium forever. This is prefect! Keep up the good work. I can't wait to see what you start making after your visit with Brian Barczyk.
That dont look horrible at all! This video helped tremendously. What size flood light would you recommend for a little 3 gallon planted tank
Thanks for the video Joey, it gave me a nice DIY idea for my new 55 gallon aquarium. Big hugs from Brazil 🇧🇷
Joey, you're an awesome builder!
This video was great. I'm currently looking for DIY lighting for a new tank. And you gave me some great ideas. As alwas you channel is the best.
just got my first 50 W! love it! such nice shadows and color on my 125G, now I just need to get a few more
hey joey, i dont know about the planted aquarium hobby but reef enthusiasts generally view a shimmer as desirable, as long as it doesnt create a discoball like effect. kessils have what seems to be the nices shimmer of any of the light i have seen
I like it as well. But its $50... It did shimmer a lot more on the other aquariums.
the shimmer is achieved using point source LED, which is exactly what is used in the kessil.
the shimmer is achieved using point source LED, which is exactly what is used in the kessil.
great video man.
Thank you for the video! I'm enjoying these DIY planted tank options.
low budget and fantastic result great job joey~
Hey Joey, thx for the video.... How many watts has the flood light used on the video? How many lumens? Thx in advance
I did this DIY and used the 30w on my 15g tank. Its looking really good!
the diy light is brighter! man this will help me out allot!
Very good video Joey and I'm looking forward to seeing more.
I was doing some research and i found this. You can buy different flood light depending on your tank.
Color:
Cool white (6000-6500k)
Warm White (3000-3500k)
High Color Temperature 10000k (used for coral reef or fish tank)
High Color Temperature 20000k (used for coral reef or fish tank)
Natural White (4000-5000k)
Dark Red 660nm (used for plant growth)
Royal Blue 445-450nm (for plant growth)
400-480nm(for plant growth)
I’m going too try this on the shrimp tank I’m starting, awesome idea man
Thanks..this gives me a lot of inspirations and diy ideas for the light.😍💪💪💪
Awesome fun diy video Joey, thanks for sharing ! ! !
Good video. Enjoy the dyi anytime can save money. Keep it coming and thanks for sharing.
thank you very much Joey. keep up the awesome work. you have helped many.
I just bought one of those for my garage and was thinking the same thing. Thank you for answering the questions i was asking myself.
great video. I've been using three 100watt led fixtures for about a year very similar to the one you used. works great!
Thanks
Marc Cardenas ffgyuiil
Nice Video.
I have a such light on my 112l Brackish tank. I Just have a few plants in the tank. I just tried it out because it was cheap but I it will be my 1st joice in the future.
This looks like a nice result. If you are ever up for it I would be keen to see a build using high CRI surface mounted device LEDs. I would recommend Yuji's high CRI emitters, however they appear to be sold in minimum 100 piece orders. Maybe something to think about?
Another good cheap option for nano planted tanks are GE Reveal LED bulbs. Very cheap, and have excellent CRI ratings. The reveals complement plants with color as opposed to just an all green planted tank
Take your time man, you put out quality content and people need to respect that it might take a while before you can make a video for us. Keep up the great work!
I'm not a big DIY guy, but this one was seriously useful. Good LEDs off the shelf are so expensive...
I got some 10 watt rgb flood lamps om amazon that are dimmable for this same purpose and they come pre-wired and work out great
Hey joey thanks a lot for the info. Would 2 of such lights be good for a 42/18/18 played aquarium. I am setting up a new tanaka soon.
Tank I meant
i think i love this man
I need this:) Thanks joey.
Great video Joey! It was very interesting and informative! I was looking for a cheap way to grow plants with and led! I currently have a led grow light in the middle of 2 10 gallon planted tanks. This seems like a better option then running 2 grow lights to get adequate coverage! At $20 a Piece! Thanks for sharing!!
you are super A+. I've been searching this solution too. thank you awesome!
Nice build! I just use one of the PAR20 5000k LEDs like you used on the Arowana tank with an inline dimmer. Still cheap and works great, probably a better idea for a really small tank like my 5 gallon since you can actually dim it.
Thank you for this idea Joey. I'm going to give this a try on my hang on back refugium!

its normal for the inner plants of rotala to die off. its never really going to stop. so just keep triming like you normally do and it will look better over time
i think i'll try this. how do you recommend using two or more lights? each on their on power cord or is it permissible to put multiple on one cable?
You’ve improved a lot with your speech and dialogue :)

I was really waiting for this video, thanks Joey! I would really love to see a diy solution for a reef tank though.
Hello, I'm a big fan of your work and I always like to watch your videos. I have a question about light. I have a new tank witch is 100cm x 50cm x 60cm height. Do you think it will be enough 2x50w flood lights for plants or is it to much? Each light is rated for 5000lm, 6000-6500k. Thank you so much.
Awesome - nice video
I just placed a $15 led desk lamp next tank. The occupants love it.
Cool video Joey! How about the full spectrum LED's purchased off eBay? I mixed mine with white LED flood lights for great effect, and growth.
Did you run a watt meter on your LED flood light? A lot of the floods on Amazon and Ebay they sell will state 20, 30 or 50 watts but will pull significantly less, either they are putting cheaper LED's in them or the drivers aren't rated for the lights. The 20's I got were pulling 10 and 11 watts, the 50's I got were pulling 42 and 46. Also if you open them up, most of them are not grounded inside, they just leave the wire hanging.
my 50W was only drawing 34W
thank you for your videos, sir. im going to start my own aquarium soon and i think i'll start with bettas.
Great show. Thanks .
Oh my gosh you just uploaded this. I thought the 360p was something wrong with youtube or your video! xD
Hey will I be able to use it for my coral/reef tank its a small tank? Plzz reply... My tank is around 30g
hey joey do use any ferts on your planted tank??
This may be a bad idea, but is it possible to attach the cord in such a way that one outlet plug would supply light to multiple floodlights shown in this video?

daisy-chain...maybe something out there
great video
Good video ... Thanks ... :)
There Are RGB flood lights available too with controllers that you can use to control the brightness as well as colour. Cheers
Those are not good for plants.
Hello, I'm really hoping that you can give me some advice on diy lighting. I'm currently working on a 240 litre goldfish aquarium. The dimensions are 36"L x 15" D x 30" H. I'm looking to grow anubias, Java Ferns and Bobytis. I have found some RGBW 30W led floodlights with 6500K. The reason I am thinking of these is because I can turn on the blue light at night.

I have also seen reef keepers use these in the 10000k-20000k (more expensive) in saltwater and RGB in Refugiums.
For longer tanks its probably best to purchase more smaller wattage floodlights to spread light footprint, also helps if 1 light decides to die it can be replaced without removing all light source.
However there is no doubt that these can grow plants.
it looks cool
i want to see a saltwater aquarium next...yay..:D
Joey, i love the led flood lights, i think i may go that way in the near future.You mentioned you got them on amazon, is that the only place you could find them? Rona, Lowes, Home Depot maybe, or are they a specialty item?
Thanks for the video Joey,
How hot do these get? Would you be able to sit these directly onto Glass/acrylic?
Phil Collins Jr.
The heatsinks are the lines on the back so should be fine to flush mount the front.
Would a lid made of Lexan hold up to this type of light or would you recommend using glass?
do you have any issues with heat? i got mine on ebay brand name Solla 30W and looks excactly like yours, mine is just sitting on top on some glass and i went to move it so i could work on the tank and it was pretty hot to the touch, a lil too hot and i had the bracket folded down so had to wait a few minutes for it to cool down to be able to touch without burning myself
do you think 2 15w ones would work for a 22in tall 37gal? a corner dose get natural sunlight so more light hungry plants go there. its a low tech tank.
I was waiting for this 👍
Hey Joey, How do you clean your goldfish tank? Do you have any video on it?
love the video u could make the flood light dim just add i dimmer to the wire where u cut to hook up the light :)
Hope you can add links to the description for future videos I think it would be very convenient. Great video though thanks for the cheaper alternative.
Hello... I have planted tank same as urs above... L w h... 22* 12 * 13 inch... Here we have flood lights as well as led 💡. ...how much Watt I should use in both cases. Please let me know. Thanks.
hey joey, do you add any fertz etc into your planted tank? or just the co2
Hello, I will try to keep this short. I got a 30 gallon tank, that I left with my family to take care of well I was away, for about 4 years. They maybe cleaned it about 8 times. Now I'm back, and I'm changing the water about 25%, once a week. And the ammonia levels are very high. I only got two fish, a blood parrot cichlid, and a rainbow shark. Should I keep doing 25% water changes or completely start over? Thank you are reading.
I'm using the floodlights on my cichlids tank. they are great solutions, however they speed up algae growth on the walls (due to the fact that the light spreads). I just turn it on for about 4-5 hours a day
Could you continue on the planted cube episodes? Perhaps a DIY on some acrylic inflow & outflow pipes?
Jesus, your videos (at least this one) are superhectic so i can easily use already the first second as a jump scare :D
what size do you think would be good for a standard 10 gal?
Hi! My tank seems to be a bit cloudy, my fish seem fine and it has been like that for 3 weeks. I have 2 Fancy goldfish ( A black moore and a oranda), 4 Danios and a snail. What do you recommend i do?
They are in a 50L tank and i'm upgrading to and 100L soon and some of my fish are new but they are still acting normal.
Try the water polisher he made, or add an extra filter until it clears up. If you didn't wash off all the stuff in the tank like gravel it could be small particles. He has a lot of cheap filters that you could make to help the remove the cloudiness.
