    I use two of these bulbs in the hood of a 10 gallon freshwater tank.

    Pros:

    -gives off a lot of light

    -makes your tank look really good, you can really see fish colorations

    -uses very little electricity

    -does not generate much heat

    Cons:

    -don’t seem to last long, 3-4 months usually

    -you will need a dark hiding spot for anyone who doesn’t

    like to be in the bright light

    -I have higher green algae growth, vs ‘yellow’ incandescent bulbs

    -does not generate much heat (only bad if you do not use a heater and rely on the bulb to warm your water)

    I have been using this bulb for about a couple weeks now and It works great! When I had my original incandescent lighting that came with the lid of my aquarium, it looked very yellow which didn’t look amusing…After installing 2 of these in my 10 Gallon tank, the whole tank just lit up and I can see everything in a more natural setting. The white/blue light went perfect for my aquarium. The fishes are brighter, plants are more vibrant, and my water looks a lot clearer too! I have freshwater tropical fishes and it is just looks good! Imagine a saltwater tank underneath these lights! Although I should of gotten the 20 Watt instead of the 10 watt. Oh well, Next time…I would recommend this light, if you want a cheap up-grade, for around $8 bucks, it’s well worth the look of your tank or whatever your using it for.

    Nice aquarium light, but one of them only lasted a couple of weeks then went out. No warranty.
