The AQUAEL LED module provides more illumination than traditional fluorescent bulbs while conserving up to 50% energy and offering natural color temperatures. This lighting mimics various sunlight and moonlight phases: Sunny \/ Blue (dawn), Sunny (daylight), and Blue (moonlight) - perfect for your aquarium’s plants and creatures! Additionally, these lights are designed for durability, making it a fantastic choice for aquarium enthusiasts who want the best for their aquatic companions without overspending!\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe module includes a modern LED unit, a glass housing that protects against moisture, and a cable with a switch. The system is splash-proof and can be safely mounted near the aquarium, such as on the cover above the tank. The LEDDY TUBE modules are simple to install, with each model coming with specific adapters to fit any luminaire. The modules draw power from an independent source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThere are four versions of this product available: two designed for freshwater tanks (LEDDY SUNNY, which provides light at a color temperature of 8000 K akin to natural sunlight, and LEDDY PLANT, with a color temperature of 9000 K, made to support the growth of aquatic plants) and two for marine tanks (LEDDY MARINE, offering light at a color temperature of 10000 K to enhance coral growth and LEDDY ACTINIC – 20000 K - for vibrant coral colors).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n    \u003ch2\u003eProduct More Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThanks to the innovative LED technology, power consumption is significantly lower than with traditional light sources, drawing only 14 W. This is half the energy of T5 (39 W) and T8 (30 W) fluorescent tubes. The LEDDY Tube 2.0 boasts long lifespan, does not heat the aquarium water, and allows for easy installation within aquarium covers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eModern LEDs have become essential in contemporary aquarism, effectively replacing older fluorescent tubes, incandescent bulbs, and compact fluorescent lamps. They offer numerous advantages, including a significant reduction in electricity usage; they can produce the same amount of light as fluorescent lamps while consuming up to 50% less energy. This results in lower electricity bills that benefit both the aquarist's budget and the environment. With a lifespan of up to 15,000 hours, they require infrequent replacements, leading to additional savings and less labor. Moreover, they do not unnecessarily heat the aquarium water and emit directional light solely towards the water surface (eliminating the need for extra reflectors), and unlike traditional fluorescent lamps, they come with a two-year manufacturer's warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n    \u003ch2\u003eWhy do we illuminate the aquarium?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThere are generally two key reasons for aquarium lighting. Firstly, it enhances the aesthetics of the tank, making it look natural. The light helps showcase the beautiful colors of the fish and plants, turning the aquarium into an attractive decor piece for any room. Secondly, and equally crucial, most aquarists aim to cultivate healthy, thriving plants within their tanks. Plants require light for 10-12 hours a day to sustain photosynthesis, the natural process that converts inorganic compounds into the organic matter essential for their survival. Thus, proper lighting is vital to ensure that the aquarium is visually appealing and that the plants flourish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe LEDs in the LEDDY TUBE SUNNY module emit light with a color temperature of 7000 K. This creates optimal conditions for aquarium plants while ensuring accurate color representation of all tank inhabitants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n    \u003ch2\u003eHow much light does the aquarium need?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe light requirements of an aquarium depend on the species of plants being grown. Generally, plants can be categorized into three groups based on their light needs:\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroup I\u003c\/strong\u003e – shade-tolerant species, such as “pelia,” mosses, microzorium, screw diver, some compact varieties (like aponogetonolist, Wendt’s compact, Backett’s warbler, Malayan warbler), and anubias.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroup II\u003c\/strong\u003e – moderately light-loving species, like spherical twig, tintland, rhododendrons, tiger lotus, ludwigie, broad-leaved vodka, three-flowered vodka, monkfish, broad-leaved arrowhead, Argentine marsh, giant diver, compact limnophils, small-leaved bacopa, Thai krina, ponikło, Japanese gloss, and swordfish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n        \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGroup III\u003c\/strong\u003e – definitely light-loving species, such as cabombs, “glossostigma,” and hemiantus.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eTypically, the lighting power is measured per liter of aquarium water. It is conventionally suggested that for LED lamps supporting shade plants, a minimum of 0.15-0.2 W per liter is required. Moderately demanding plants need about 0.25-0.4 W\/l, while those that are definitely light-loving require even 0.5-0.7 W\/l.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe “day” in an aquarium can occur at any time of the day. If the tank is situated far from windows and relies solely on artificial light, the timing for turning the lights on and off can be adjusted to personal preferences and when residents are typically home (for example, “dawn” at 3 PM and “dusk” at 1 AM). This way, you can enjoy the beauty of your own “piece of the underwater world” at your convenience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n    \u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003ctable\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n            \u003cth\u003eArticle\u003c\/th\u003e\n            \u003cth\u003ePower [W]\u003c\/th\u003e\n            \u003cth\u003eDimensions [cm] (width x depth x height)\u003c\/th\u003e\n            \u003cth\u003eLumens\u003c\/th\u003e\n            \u003cth\u003eColor Temperature [K]\u003c\/th\u003e\n            \u003cth\u003eReplaces Fluorescent Lamps\u003c\/th\u003e\n        \u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003eLEDDY TUBE 10W PLANT 2.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003e10\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003e41.5 x 27\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003e9000\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003eT8 18W, T5 24W\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003eLEDDY TUBE 14W PLANT 2.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003e14\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003e70 x 21\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003e9000\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003eT8 30W, T5 39W\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003c\/tr\u003e\n        \u003ctr\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003eLEDDY TUBE 17W PLANT 2.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003e17\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003e101.5 x 21\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003e9000\u003c\/td\u003e\n            \u003ctd\u003eT8 36W, T5 54W\u003c\/td\u003e\n        \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Aquael","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53219988570385,"sku":null,"price":429.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0888\/7091\/2273\/files\/5BAQ124345_5D_20Aquael_20Leddy_20Tube-Plant_5BPower_20-_2017W_5D.jpg?v=1780596847","url":"https:\/\/vetforest.com\/products\/aquael-leddy-tube-plantpower-17w-2","provider":"VetForest.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
