The exact outside measurement is 36 1/4 inches. The "legs" on the fixture will extend that range by an inch or two. I think that some advertiser took the measurements of the box it came in at 41" and called that its length. I was confused by this at first as well. The 41" would have been just perfect for my jerry-rigged application.

The fixture is 36 inches long and the bulb is 30 inches. I had problems with this measurement when ordering this lamp. I was confused by this and originally ordered the size smaller. I had to send it back. Don't make the same mistake I did. I bought the 41" and it is "36 long. I have a 125 gallon that is 72" long and 2 of these fit perfectly. I don't know where the 41" came from but even with the moveable leg brackets all the way out, it is only 38" wide. I hope this helps.

I have the 36" fixture. The fixture itself is 36" end to end. 38 1/2 with the legs fully extended. The led bulbs for the 36" is 30" long with 20 leds

The light is 36 1/4 almost. The same almost as your current flourescents. It gives out great lighting. Two leds are included which are white and i can buy an add. Different color to give it a better look. We also bought the color ones to it but added in one so far. You also have the option of pressing the button for night. I really recommend this light fixture. Also you position where you want the handles to hold the light.

A 75 Gallon is usually 36" in width or length, so I would recommend the 36" to 48". That way, when you have the LED lights on, it will be a bit brighter in the right and left side of the tank, as well. My suggestion, though, is if you want it pretty bright, then I'd go with the Double Bright LED lights.

The instructions should give pretty specific details. I believe it's 12 inches for fifteen minutes but you may have to toy with it. I found that recommendation to be a bit much so i put it further away. The bulbs will last a very long time. I've had mine for over a year and haven't replaced one.

The unit is exactly 24" in length with extenders on both sides that will extend the total out 26". I have a 48" wide 60 gal tank with a bar at the top in the center so I use 2 of the 24" units. I tried a 48" unit first but the center bar wouldn't allow the unit to sit securely. The units come with a single led bulb, but will house 3. You will want at least 2 bulbs per unit. In spite of the expense, I now have 3 bulbs per unit. Beware of knocking them into the tank! I managed to ruin one of the units by doing so! Best of luck!

On the 36" each bulb is rated at 39 watts. So the 4 bulb fixture is a total of 156 watts. Dont get to hung up on watts per gallon per say. It does matter, but look into PAR more importantly. With my 36" I have no problem growing anything. (SPS, LPS, etc...)

Sorry for the delay. I had to find an incandescent bulb. I converted my house to CFLs years ago, but I found a 40W in the garage door opener. I'm not sure if it's the same size as a 60W. The LED bulb is about 3/8" - 1/2" longer than the 40W. Otherwise, they're the same diameter and pretty close in shape. The light from the LED bulb is very directional. If you put one in a table lamp, you'll light the ceiling more than the table. I tried one in a horizontal, single socket ceiling fixture and only lit up the one side of the room that the bulb faced. Best to have a dual-socket ceiling fixture. Sorry for the delay. I had to find an incandescent bulb. I converted my house to CFLs years ago, but I found a 40W in the garage door opener.

I have the 24" light on a 29 gal tank which is also 30" long. It sits on my glass versa top on legs about an inch tall. Provides great light - enough to grow plants and lots if algae. The moonlights are neat ! I think you can use the 24" and save some money unless you need the 30" light to rest on the sides of the tank. The LED lights are the best !

I'm not sure how to ask a question here. How high is this, and how wide is the narrow part at the bottom? I have small light bulbs (the kind with about a 1/2" screw rather than full size) and a UNO fitting (my two lamps were made in England, but I had them rewired for the USA when I moved back. I have had a very hard time finding new shades, the ones I just bought are too short, so want to know exactly the dimensions of this piece, as I think it might work. Also, what is the distance at the very top of the narrowest point above the socket, as I need to see if that will get in the way of my round small bulbs (they are LED so I'm keeping them a long time).

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.

the size wattage wise is up to the light itself, but it is for a standard size bulb base!!! like you have in all regular light fixtures!!!

Hey Patrick, I have 2 of these tank 9 gallon setups. The height is about 15-1/2 - 16" There are little feet on the bottom so the tank won't ruin the counter top. The little lamps are awesome, but not really well made. I wish the lamps were sold separately so I found put one on my little run-of-the-mill 2 gallon backup tank. Also, the company stands behind their product if you have any difficulty. Cheers!

It's around 10 inches :) Just a suggestion, tho. It'll be much better if you these bulbs for this fixture instead of the provided ones. Hope it helps! (Pack of 6) F54T5/865/HO 54-Watt T5 High Output 6500K Daylight Bulbs

Same info as the other comments. This is a full size fixture that holds 3 bulbs. Not 6x6x6

The best measurement I can get on it is about 4 1/2" to 4 5/8 inches long and slightly over 2" at it's widest point on the bulb. I compared it to a standard 60 watt incandescent and it is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch longer than the incandescent and just slightly narrower in it's bulb width. I should easily fit in anything a 60 watt bulb will but be just a little longer. Hope that helps.

McKAy105, Did you buy this? I am shopping for LED lighting for my 30" deep 150g tank, and would love feedback or other recommendations! Thanks!

I just pulled one of these out and measured. It's about 4.25" long. The glass bulb end is about 2.25" in diameter at the biggest place. And, of course, it has the standard "Edison" style screw-in base. It's actually quite small, and probably no larger than a 40W incandescent. The dimensions you mention must be for the bulb in its packaging!
