can they be used as underwater aquariun light?

I don't think so, although these are very cool for the price... We are already having trouble with the sticky not staying up. But maybe if you have a good way to adhere, it seems to be encased in something which might be ok underwater

It would be ok for just fish, but if you are doing corals and inverts, you will want a reef specific lighting. If I were you, I would find a forum or group that has experience with reef tanks and ask there. As I understand it, intensity and spectrum are very important.

Probably not bright enough for a reef tank. Marine land makes one that is reef bright though. If you were using it in conjunction with other lights to fill out the color spectrum and add intensity it would work. Other than that I've been pleased with mine, I did have an issue with it, but marine land had a new one to me in under a week.

Aside from possible code violations or possibility of electrical problems, you would not want to do this because the heat of the bulbs is very high and contact with water could cause the bulbs to crack or even explode. You wouldn't take a hot glass dish from the oven and put it under running water but if you put these lights in a shower you would have the same effect

If you have a couple of these in protective housing underwater, they should work. Im not certain that the remote will transmit the signal underwater. Give them a chance, if it works, you won't be disappointed.

If you have a nano fish-only then this would work fine, but nowhere near enough light output for corals. (maybe some softies?) I am using one, but as a light over my sump/refugium on my saltwater tank.

These lights need a low voltage transformer that states it can be used with submersible lighting. I have found most transformer below 300 watt state that they are not suitable for submersible lighting.

Definitely not. These LEDS in these hoods have a pretty low lumen count and are pretty much strictly for illumination, not plant growth. You could grow some low light freshwater plants, but that's about all.

As others have explained, they don't light underwater, they just stay "lit" underwater. Just google "UCO matches underwater" and you'll find several Youtube videos.

Of course it can. It can probably work under water, but it's not too smart. Best damn light I ever had.

It should work as long as it is with the voltage specks under driving them will not hurt them. But I have not done it with these just with diy reef aquarium lights. It work just fine

These units are sealed so you should be able to get creative with mounting. That being said I would not submerge the light.

I haven't tried, but I assume no. They have batteries in them and would no longer work if you submersed them I would guess.

yes they are, they work great , they are some time hard to get color to change under that much water since they are IR control , put remote in zip lock bag and make sure all the air is out you can put remote under water to change color.

Probably, but they are not bright enough to use. Can't be seen at all in the daylight and just a little at night.

It could but would be dependent on depth of water how high up they where towards the surface and their type. This light will not support something like red planet.

I don't think I would put them in water but they do have floating tealights these lights are very pretty tho and you woulnd'nt be disappointed my daughters love them.
