Dale, I don't know how big your fish is. I put some on my Cock, now I can see him crow in the morning when he wakes me up. Hope that helps Dale.

Better question is will they glow in the frying pan. If they do will they be called Glowfish instead of Blowfish?

I found that if you have the dust and dawn mode in the e setting (a bright white sunlight with a rolling cloud cover though various color spectrums) that the light would flash bright when it went to the next color. The fish didn't like it. It seemed as if the light was trying to give the colors it wanted but the timer was cutting the power to the light causing it to flash bright colors when it went I the next color. I've found the dust and dawn mode to work best on one color setting. I leave mine on full spectum. The fish seem to like it and the dust and dawn mode lets them know it's time to wake up and time to settle down. It also reduces the stress on the fish from the light cutting on in one flash motion.

Yes. I turn the lights off at night. It really is a nice little tank. We have had it going for two months now.

I haven't seen any glow in the dark rubber bands. I am thinking that Neon Colors glow in the dark, don't recall seeing any of those in rubber bands. You can check further into this.

With the moonlight setting on it should give you the effect you're looking for. A dark background and surroundings will help them glow during the day too.

No it's perfect! The fish have gotten used to the light. It's not too bright. I have about 17 different fish, 10 shrimp, and a ton of growing plants. You have to be carefull when you first put the fish in. They do get slightly shocked from the light. The only thing I wish this light had was a dimmer. In the mornings I noticed the fish kinda freaked out when it first turned on. I bought a hidden led light from marineland and set that light to turn on before the planted plus. My fish are happy and plants that require moderate to strong light are growing well. It's a beautiful light.

No. I have found blue compact fluorescent bulbs actually work better than the blue led. You need some sort of blue light source to get the fish to flouresce though.

No, it doesn't glow in the dark, but some colors might glow at the neon light.

Yes it does, however not that brightly (I was a little disappointed and no longer keep glofish). There are only 2 blue LEDs and they are meant for nighttime not for glofish.

There is a light weight plastic top which has to be lifted off but there is an opening below the light which is two by 4 inches. A talented and determined cat could stick a paw in there to try a little fishing but wouldn't be able to reach in as far as an uncovered tank. I have one beta fish in mine and am not familiar with glow fish. Hope this helps!

The hood comes with one sun replica bulb. It brings out the natural colors of the fish. If you want to have your aquatic life glow, you will need to replace the bulb. Previous factory lights were closer to a black light. Newer hoods will mostly come with sun type lights. It's not a bad thing by any means. It does however give a greener glow to the tank. I hope this helps in your decision. By the way, I have been raising fish for about 39 years. I somehow have always had a fish tank since I was a kid. You name it, I most likely have raised it. Mostly fresh water but, have had a few marine tanks. Fresh water is just easier and less time consuming. The hood comes with one sun replica bulb. It brings out the natural colors of the fish.

I know what Glow-On is, and it's a fantastic product! (In theory, I don't own it, but I see the potential.) However, I honestly am not entirely sure if this would 'recharge' it per say. Glow-in-the-dark materials require bright, visible light in order to activate their molecular fluorescence. I can only GUESS that the answer is no, but I could be wrong.

I thought they did. Some had like a 1 inch section that wouldn't snap and glow, but it didn't effect the glow stick as a whole. We used these at our yearly fish fry to give to all the kids when it started to get dark. It helped us to keep track of everyone!

It comes with a plastic top and the center has a whole so you can feed fish. I wrapped the top with plastic wrap to prevent cats from drinking the water. I believe it's one fish per gallon as a recommendation. I don't know much about glow fish.

My lights don't show until it is dark.. and then it's great.. I don't see how they could be adjusted.. the glow on the lights aren't THAT bright, where you wouldsee them for sure at dusk... there is a nice glow though.. Mine have been hanging up for a month and a 1/2 now.. and I still love them.. been rained on.. been blown all over by the wind... watered on.. still holding shape and brightness.. love them.

Want overheat but like in the other answer, the fish do need a break from light if you have fish.

No, these are glow in the dark. U would recommend buying the chest piece and attaching it if he wants LED
