I have 55 gallons fish tank and it came with 2 of 22" individual light fixture. I am not sure if this light fixture will work for me

I have a 150 gallon tank and i have one of these lights that works fine. I will order another one to complete my lighting.

i presume it depends on the size lamp you purchase. i have the 10 gallon size on my 30 gallon tank and it works wonderfully. from what i read you had 2 on yours. if so i would purchase 2 of the 10 gallon sizes ones. that is this one here. my fish love the lighting and are thriving under it. if 1 is good for my tank, 2 should be efficient for yours. i hope this helps you with your choice.

I would think so, but you'd be smart to get a diagram or look at the specifications of the fixture with an electrician or even someone in the light department at Home Depot if you're DIY. The fixture is returnable if it doesn't fit.

The lengths (24"-36" for example) are as follows: the light fixture itself is 24" long, the supports for the light will stretch out to 36" allowing the fixture to be used on a wider aquarium. I have the 36"-48" fixture on an aquarium that is 48" long, and as a result I have areas in the tank where light intensity is less that it is in the middle and it is causing plants on the edge I the aquarium to get insufficient light. I would suggest you get a fixture in which the smaller length (24" on a 24"-36") matches the width if your tank. That is unless you want some darker areas in your aquarium.

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 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.

Yea i have a 55 gallon thats 36" as well. Its actually fits really well. I have it about 30" above my tank so its covering it from end to end. Powerful light for sure.

It should be ok but you will need 2 of them. They don't put out a ton of light but with 2 you should be ok as they are dimmable. Or, buy just one and decide after you try it if you want another. I have an 80 gallon at work and have 3, once is only running blue and the other 2 are at 100 blue and 55 white. With a smaller tank you have to remember you have less LEDs too.

It all depends on how bright you want it. I have a 26 gallon tank and got 2 bulbs, but it makes the tank really bright. If your tank gets quite a bit of light from a nearby window or something, I think 1 bulb would be enough. Why not try it first with one bulb and if it's not bright enough, buy the 2nd one?

If I rememer correctly the 24" will work but it won't go across the entire tank so you will have some part either not lit or dinner than the rest. I would suggest going bigger especially if you are going to have live plants.

My tank is 50g. It's ok for me. Your tank is almost double in size. In my opinion for medium high lighting, this light may not be sufficient.

That will probably be most dependant on what you have in the tank. The LEDs are pretty bright and can most certainly light up a tank of the right dimensions.

I have one fixture on a 75 gallon tank and it is more than enough, but my tank isn't as deep as a 90 gallon would be - the water depth is probably something to consider too. I have LPS, SPS and soft corals and they are all doing well (too well in some cases). If you are only going to have fish and/or soft corals then I am sure you have plenty of light. If you have a lot of SPS all over the tank you MIGHT consider a second, but only if you have species that need a large amount of light. If I had to chose, I would buy one, then see what it looks like.

I don't know but It wasn't enough to light up my tank adequately. I have a 150 gallon aquarium and bought 3 of these and had to buy an extra 3 lights to add to each base. I imagine if the tank you're trying to light Is small enough it'll be ok.

The light strip comes to within two inches of each end of the light fixture. You'll want the 48", since two 24" would leave a 4" gap unlit in the center, plus wouldn't look as sleek and clean as the single fixture. I have them on both of my 55-gal tanks, and love them. (The center support on my tanks don't interfere with the light, since it sits slightly above the top of the tank.)

Ahhh... I'm not sure since my aquarium is quite small (20 gallons), that's why it's worked well for me. I imagine for that size of aquarium you would require a lot of these LED light in order to fulfill your light needs for that size tank. But that also depends on the dimensions of your tank. If it's not that deep (24 inches in height or less), then these lights will do well. But I suggest you research other LED lights before buying this, and you get others opinions. Hope this helps.

I would not buy this fixture at all, I bought two but barely bright my 90 gallon tank. I had to returned them and paid for shipping cost. I bought 4 DYSun "cindy@dsuny.com.cn" panels and they are a lot better, they are from HongKong but only took 2 days to get here in U.S

Yes. There are two rows of white and red LEDs. This would work for a 20g, but be warned, it is extremely bright (even for my 30g.) Plan on hanging your lights or setting them above the tank to evenly distribute lighting.Hopefully you have enough plants, or else you will be creating an algae farm.
