will the plants grow if the aquarium top is thin plastic
1105555
I have the light over a 2 gallon betta tank, it has a sword type plant that has done very well. Almost filling the tank, I do use a liquid carbon supplement one a week that has helped greatly. As I posted in my review the light was great for about 2 months but now almost all of the white LED's have burnt out. The blue LED's are fine, I just have a hard time recommending it. Hope this helps.

It's very thin won't fit over my aquarium edge. I just lay it on top of the glass top

Yes. Provided that you fill the flower tower evenly so it will not tip over. The watering tube insert is removable and that should help when filling the top. I think it could be easily weighted down with those glass pebbles for floral arrangments.

It would do as a temp house but they will need a bigger tank as they grow. Mine is in an 80 gallon tank now

Plant life prefers a certain wave length, but this will allow some forms of algae to grow. If you want coralline algae this should work as long as the tank is shallow.

Most likely, I'm not sure about the fish tank, but it is a very sturdy cabinet, so I would think it would be fine with the tank on top.

I belive it would . Depending on there size . Some reviews said there's leaked mine I'm not sure I'm using 4 as planters . Also I'm not sure about since it's galvanised steel if this would affect the fish ?

I have only this substrate in my 29 gallon and it is sufficient to grow plants. I recommend periodically supplementing with Flourish in order to maximize plant growth, but a decent group of fish will provide enough nutrients for decent plant growth.

Probably. I have mine over a 10G tank and my mushrooms, ricordea, zoas, and duncans are all doing great.

Probably not. Plants need good light and this is not the one. Don't know of any that are better, these small tanks are probably better with artificial plants.

I do not have live plants in my aquarium. I do have a 50 gal tank and it lights it very nicely. I love the moon light feature.

No it does not. And it takes a "special" water to let them grow. Regular bottled or sink water will not work.

Yes. Follow directions carefully to make sure water if flowing before you leave. Water container must be lower then the plant and you need to make sure water is being drawn up. I also attached a small stone to the bottom of tubing to make it sink to the bottom of the empty clear plastic gallon size milk jug.

No it's a soft plastic wouldn't be heavy enough to support plants. My chickens broke thru on day one.

Absolutely. I have had the light on a 10 gallon with low-medium plants for a couple months now, and they are doing great. I recommend a glass lid, too, but whatever the lid, remember that the scum which accumulates on the glass/clear plastic under the light will block a significant amount of light from reaching the plants, so don't forget to clean it off every once in a while.

That's a wonderful idea. I went to the pet store and purchased some aquarium paper to put behind the aquarium. I cut out a piece of thin cardboard the exact size of the aquarium and wrapped the paper around it. The ledge I put it on was very narrow and the plastic plants that came with the unit were too bulky to use. That's why I bought the aquarium paper and it worked out great.
