The main function of the fish tank lamp is for viewing. Of course, there are many kinds of lamps, such as lamps for fish watching. For example, the general red tube lamp can be used to attract some precious fish, and it looks more beautiful; Special for aquatic plants, such as three-band tube lamps with photosynthesis, which is beneficial to plants in the aquarium to produce oxygen and ensure oxygen in the water; blue, red, and green lights are used on different colors of aquatic plants, such as red grass should be added blue tubes on the basis of the three-band and so on. Sterilization lamp is a lamp specially used for sterilization.
The difference between fish tank lamp and lighting lamp
Aquarium lamp: aquarium lamp is a kind of ornamental lamp, its main purpose is to install on the fish tank, embellishing the fish tank and fish, it cannot be used in daily lighting.
Illumination lamp: A practical lamp, mainly used for people to illuminate at night.
Aquarium lights cannot be turned on 24 hours. The sun will rise and fall, and animals and plants have the same rules of life, so the daily lighting time should be 10-12 hours, which is equivalent to the time from sunrise to sunset, especially the aquarium with aquatic plants, not only should have enough illuminance (light brightness), also should have enough light time, otherwise, neither fish nor aquatic plants can be kept well. If it is just for fish farming, there is no water grass, the light can be less, or you can switch the light on and off according to your favorite work schedule, but generally do not turn it on and off too often, as this will also affect the life rules of the fish.

Let’s talk about common sense about the use of aquarium lights：
The following points must be noted when using the aquarium lighting: turn off the aquarium lighting first, and then turn off the indoor lighting; turn on the indoor lighting first, and then turn on the aquarium lighting. Remember not to switch the lights on or off suddenly, otherwise, the fish will be frightened.
For more safety, generally, choose waterproof lamps and terminals. There should be ventilation holes at both ends or upper part of the lamp holder so that the heat of the lamp tube can be dissipated in time. If the heat of the lamp tube cannot be dissipated in time, it may cause an explosion.
Under normal circumstances, the daily lighting time should not exceed 8 to 12 hours, and the lights should be turned on and off at regular intervals so that the organisms in the water form a certain conditioned reflection. Be sure to wipe the lamp tube and lamp holder regularly, because too much dust on the lamp tube or lamp holder will affect the brightness of the lamp. Frequently wiping the dust on the lamp tube can reduce the loss of light. The power supply must be unplugged during wiping to avoid electric shock. The lamp will become dark after using it for a period of time, and it should be replaced. Generally, the lamp should be replaced once every 3 months. If the lamp is more expensive, the replacement time can be extended appropriately. It can be replaced once every half year.
When buying fish, I clearly saw that the fish I chose was very beautiful, when put in the fish tank in my home, it was not as pretty as before. This is the effect of the lighting. Choosing the right light can make the fish in the tank more vivid and beautiful. The red is redder, the “lighted” is brighter, and the water plants are fresher and greener, which can really make the fish more pleasing.
