I purchased this light for a 50 gallon tank that was 36" wide. Glad I did because the light fixture itself is 36" and the legs stretch to 48". The light is a lot brighter than I expected and lights up the tank nicely.

Have it on a 180 gallon and it looks great. Provides plenty of light without being harsh. Love the night time effect. Not sure about plants liking it yet, too soon to tell. Overall a great light for the price.

I placed this light setup for my reef tank and it looks awesome. The lighting is bright -- it gives my live rock the sunshine that it needs to thrive, and the moon light effect brings out all my little creepy crawlies...awesome, awesome light.

I have a 20 gallon tall tank and this fit perfect. I love the way the light plays off of everything in the tank.

GREAT Light, GREAT Price, GREAT Service. So far I love this light and my plants are still alive and the moonlight is excellent. I have new fish under this light and would definitely buy another.

I've had the 36" light for about 1 month and we like it very much. Use it on a 36"-- 50 gallon tank and it's just right. For anyone looking for a led light, I would highly recommend the double over the single light and to also go with the length that is the same length as your tank. The brightness is excellent, but with either of the lesser options I think we would have regretted the decision. Excellent Price, Shipping Status Updates and Quick Shipping!

These lights are great, really like the Double Bright and the Moon light is really cool. Also a great price on these lights, plus the free shipping. I purchased 2-18" for my 55 gal. tank.

I got the 36"-48" version for my 36" 40g breeder and I couldntve been happier, its suitable for low light plants which is all I really use and the best part is I don't have to replace the bulbs!! Lol

I LOVE this light! I had a light that used 34" T5 lights. They were a pain to find and an even bigger pain in my wallet! I was spending $40 for two bulbs every 2-3 months. That is when I decided that I needed to make a change. I invested in this light and I love it!

The lights are bright, even for my tank that is three feet deep! It's amazing! There really is a natural effect to the lights too. The night mode is nice--we like it when we are watching movies and the fish are still up.

One of the other reviews says that the legs cannot extend, but they CAN. They are a little stiff at first, but with a little work they slide out.

I really like this light and it does provide more than enough for fish viewing and probably low-level light plants. Certainly not enough for high light needs (but that is stated). I agree it would be nice if you could use a timer to switch between moonlight and full light, but can only be done manually. One thing I didn't realize is the legs are not adjustable so the length is only 24" and will not reach across a 30" span.

I probably should have bought the 48" for my 55gal but even with 36"s of light it lights up the whole tank. The night light setting is sweeeeet! its bright enough to see your fish yet dim enough for the dark seeking fish to come out and play. Plus the shimmering effect really does imitate natural light, the tank looks more alive. Sadly I don't think my live plants will do the best with this type of light but its to early to tell. I can get plants that survive on lower light anyways :) buy this light, LEDs last forever and they look natural!

I simply love this light. I have a corner bow tank, so the leg extensions didn't work for me, but they are removable. Very little heat, low wattage, and the moon lights look spectacular.

I have a 60 Gallon freshwater aquarium with 6 Oscars and they love this light! The heat of my old Current USA Nova lights coupled with the heat of the Summer was bringing my tank temperature up to high for comfort. I knew I either had to buy a chiller (too expensive both for the chiller and the extra energy consumption required to run the darn thing) so I found the Marineland LED Double Bright light fixture and I knew this was my solution. Not only was the LED light way cheaper on PetMountain than my local store but the low energy consumption would also lower my monthly energy bill. This was a no brainer since it will pay for itself within the first year! I set it up in 1 minute and plugged it in and it looks fantastic!

On February 26, 2011:
This light works great. Will definitely get another one.

I've used this product in the past and have had no problems with it. Petmountain had the best price I found on line.

I ordered two of these for my two 29 and 20L and am very pleased. The light output is great and heat produced is almost none (heat in FL is a bad thing)! Easy to setup over a glass canopy. Just wish it had two power cords to allow a timer to switch from day to night lighting.

On January 8, 2011:
I purchased the 24 LED version of this light (the biggest one they sell) ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!! Adds really vibrant color to my tank, Very bright! I do agree with people who suggest Marineland put the blue LEDS on a separate power-supply so you can put them on a separate timer for night time, but my fish can survive without an automatic night light until then. I can push the button to make my tank blue at night, no biggie!

Works well with my saltwater tank.

The best value I found. It's a great light. I have a 75gl hex tank and this is what I needed. I would recommend this anytime.

This fixture would be an ideal choice for a fish only aquarium display due to it's sleek design, low power consumption, and no need for bulb replacement. The downside is that for a freshwater planted or saltwater coral tank this light is simply not enough. On the freshwater side you can definitely grow low light plants like anubias, java fern, crypts, etc. but I would not attempt anything more requiring. I would also recommend buying the biggest size that fits on your aquarium as this increases the amount of LEDs and makes the tank a bit brighter. Pros -low operating cost -sleek, low profile design -"shimmer" effect Cons -Low light output (suitable for fish only though) -switch between "day" and "night" is manual and cannot be used with a timer

These are the greatest lights ever they will pay for them selves in no time
