ArttyFish Mixed Pygo Shoal LED Shimmering Effect Set Up

I wish!

Another question for you. What's the light spread on these like? These will be going on a 60x30x24 tank, and I want to hang them several inches off the tank. Do you think 5 would give decent coverage of light? I don't want the tank super bright, but I don't want any dark spots either.

My question is how tall the lights are.....how high off the glass are they??

Where the hell has this tank been hiding?

Oh man 5 IMO would be more than enough. one of these will light the floor about 4 foot! if you elevated, it has a wider lighting area! I would go 3-4. These are real nice lights I found.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, wider coverage pattern by having them a foot or so off the tank. I'm getting all giggity thinking of how it will look

They sit on top of the tank. Not raised at all. Since they are LED, they only get mildly warm not hot at all. So you can face them flat anywhere!

No need to elevate IMO. They have a very wide light spread. You'll see when you get them! And you will be thanking me for days showing these to you. I think outside of the box when it comes to fish keeping and energy savings.
PS make sure you get the white 6500K ones. Its a nice clean bright white color, not ugly yellow.

Alright cool. I'll start off by ordering 3-4 and see how it looks. Man you're already a lifesaver!!! I've been looking around for a nice/cheap LED fixture and this is perfect!! Everything else is too expensive or is some crazy DIY wiring project
