I have a 75 gal tank, 4 feet in length. Would this be a good light for that? Would the 48" light work, or do I need larger?

Measure the top of your tank, as long as its within that range it should be just fine

Should work fine as long as it is a fresh water tank. It doesn't say in the details but it also needs a lid to your tank to keep and moisture off the light

It should work. I have a 48-inch and a 24-inch light on my 125-gallon reef tank with several types of corals and an anemone.

Get one of these (good enough for medium plant growth) plus a 48" Ray2 Daylight (much brighter colors and adds some additional light for that 90 gallon). I'm running this exact combo on my 72 bow front, and the daylight is a little too much to have on all the time for the loaches...

For a 24 inch long 20 gallon tank I would recommend the 18 to 24 inch light.

You want full coverage of your tank. The minimum sizes of the fixtures are the actual length of the light bar, and then there are legs that pull out to extend to fit onto larger tanks. If you tank is 24" wide, you definitely want the 24" fixture, else you'll have a light that only lights up the middle, with 3" of unlit area to each side.

It will fit 24" long tank or longer. But light just has 17.75" long, I don't suggest you to use it for your tank. I use it for my 20 gal plant tank so it protect fit. I mean light is bright enough to keep my plant to grow. If you use it for plant tank, the one 24" to 36" will be better to you.

This light should be more than sufficient for your purposes. It is very bright and works quite well for plants. I no longer have an aquarium, but last spring I set it up for our garden starters; the plants under this light did much better than those under an ordinary full-spectrum light. I hope this helps.

Depending on the corals you have, yes. This fixture is good for most hard and soft corals. The 48" fixture is good for up to a 75 gallon tank with on fixture.

I use to used 2 of these for low light plants on my standard tetra "55" g tank (its actually more like 48g and mis-sold as 55.. but I digress) the 24"-36", it has 4 rows of lights that only cover about 17.5" in the center of that 24" space, the 36" is just max leg extension. I removed one leg from each light and put the de-legged side on the center brace (I put a 1" bar on top of the brace to keep lights level), pushing the 2 lights together they fit snugly on top. It worked well for low light aquarium plants like anubias , java fern, vals, mosses, and marimo. However if you want medium light plants I'd strongly advise a different brand made for plant growth.. or just get 6500kelvnin cfls bulbs and clamp on lamps (3-4x) if you don't mind the look of them. I've upgraded to a 2 bulb 6500k t5 light over my "55"g now.

If you have an all glass top you could get a 24, though it wouldn't be stable sitting there. Assuming you have an open tank, you can either get a 30, or 2 12" lights. The 2 12s would certainly be more costly, but might give you more control over the light output.

Dena...this led light is sufficient for a ten gallon tank used for planted aquariums...so if you are using this for a 29 gallon sump then it wouldn't be bright enough for cirals or plants...However, 12 gallon refugium should be fine but I would recommend two units for ultra bright...please let me know if you have any questions

I bought the 24" for my 30 gal tank. It said 24"-36" I believe. The light was 24" and the legs extended out the sides so it would fit up to 36". Great light but if you have a 77" tank I doubt that 48" will work for you.

I would sayou no I have a 90 gal and have to run a 48 " florescent as well.it is dim with just the orbit your zoas my be ok with only a single light .

I have a glass top so that set up works and the light lays on top. The metal legs extend several inches though, so this would safely lay accross a 48 inch tank (maybe/probably even larger) without a glass top without risk of falling in as a result of being too narrow. I do not know if it would fit snug or not.

My tank is 17" tall, and the light is so strong I only use it at 65%. I think you would be fine with one at 80-100%

Hello, I have a 55gallon tank so I purchased the "36-48'' light. It lights my tank well but if I didn't have a canopy to cover the light, I would have ordered the 48" light as a light that completely covers the tank looks better if you don't have a canopy. Hope this helps. Rhandi

I have it on a 24" deep tank and it lights the entire tank end to end and corner to corner. It's a 48"x24"x24" 120g
