Does this strip light set directly on top of the glass panel that acts as a tank cover?

Yes it does, it also has legs so it can be raised off the glass. I prefer it above the glass myself on smaller tanks, and directly on the glass on my larger tanks.

it would depend on the tank cover you have. I have a 20 gallon tall tank (29 inch width) with a glass versa top and yes, it sits on top of it perfectly.

Yes it fits right on top, doesn't attach anywhere but it is the perfect length for a 10 gallon aquarium with a glass tank cover.

Yes it sits on top. I have a 10 gallon tank with glass lid. My lid has a track on top and light fits over track

I would say yes if your tank is not longer than the length of the light. The light has "feet" that can slide in and out to adjust for your tanks width and hold the light above the tanks top. I am very happy with my light.

I do. I just removed the fastening points and allowed the light fixture to sit directly on the glass. (They are adjustable and/or removeable) If you have a canopy, it also comes with cables to suspend it.

Mine does and it's absolutely beautiful! No algae issues with this kind of light. It does not heat the glass either.

No, the depth is set. It hangs my 6" lamp pretty much right by the glass. I wouldn't suggest it over a background that sticks out from the tank wall.

No, this is an accent light thatvworks well to add color to your tank, but will not be bright enough to use in place of the hood light.

The mounts slide on the light in grooves so it can be made to fit a smaller tank ..you will just have to have a glass lid to set the light on

Yes and I installed mine above my shower stall and it covers the shower's light fixture.

Yes it does. The strength of the light can be controlled by rotating the off switch past the on setting to various increasing degrees of intensity.

The light would work sitting on the glass. I bought this light for my friend's tanks a while back. If I remember correctly it has a clear plastic cover that protected the lights, so the cover would act as if it was up against the glass any way.

somewhere around the perimeter on the top. put as close as you can to the edge ,otherwise there will not be enough clearance for the light to fit properly

As far as I know you can. You may want to get a stand for the light so that way it's not sitting directly in the top of tank or whatever you are using.

No. There is no cover between the rim and top of the glass shade. As mentioned, it's designed so you can change the bulb easily. It is a beautiful fixture though. We have it hanging in our entryway and have had no issues with bugs. Also since the shade is frosted you do not see any dust easily and it's easy to clean.

No, it is only made to attach to the desk top. Best light I have ever used!

Yes, the on/off is at the top of the light. And the color is very true to the shade in the picture!

Sorry no longer have unit. It was used for bearded dragon tank and sat directly on mesh screen lid. Bulbs never came in contact with lid so it wasn't a problem. Both lights had individual on/off switch.

Hi aquagirl, If you are looking for a hood that can hold lights etc, this isn't it. This is strictly the glass cover that goes on top of the tank. It's glass with a plastic attachment on one side that you can cut in to guide tubed and cables in the tank.
