Fluval Plant 3.0 LED Planted Aquarium Lighting, 32 Watts, 24-34 Inches

Out of all the light systems I've tried, these are probably the most convenient and configurable of them all. I recently purchased a Fluval Flux tank. After playing seeing all the things you can do with the included light system, I made the plunge and replaced all five of my aquarium lights with Fluval lights.Pro's:*Easy/Highly configurable. You can set your lights and color any way you like or use the built-in presets.*Super bright! I've had to tweak my lights often to avoid algae growth, but my plants are going crazy.*The warranty is three years on their lights!Cons's:*The iPhone app is slightly quirky and could use some work. It's just not as polished as other smart lighting apps out there. I find certain features like export custom settings confusing. Not to mention you can only export to lights of the same type. If you have Grown Lights and Aquasky lights, you cannot import-export profiles across light types even if you want a similar effect on both.*I have an iPhone and Ipad. The lights seem to work best when you only use one device to configure them. I've had issues, particularly when I rename a light, the second device will lose connection with it, and you have to re-add the light back to the device.*You cannot group lights or configure similar lights together. I have two lights in my Fluval Flex tank. I have configured each one separately. It would be nice to group them and control them both at the same time. The app treats each light individually.*You only the ability to create one routine per light. It would be nice if you could configure different patterns per day of the week. For example, I have a tank in my bedroom and have the lights come on at 6:30 am on weekdays. I sleep in on the weekends and would prefer the lights to come on around 8 am. I've installed separate smart plugs (Kasa), that turn on the power to the units at 8 am on the weekends.*No integration with Alexa or other Smart systems. My entire house runs on Smarthings; it would be awesome to update the app to integrate with 3rd party applications. I have two tanks in my living room; it would be awesome if I could tell Alexa to turn off the lights when I want to watch a movie. Depending on the Fluval model, I have to pull out the app or hit the button light itself.*Occasionally, the lights will ignore the routines. I've run into a few instances where the lights should be off based on my configuration, but are still on. When I open the app and connect to the light, it suddenly re-syncs and continues where the routine should be.I realize I have lots of Cons, but they are mostly issues with the app itself. Fluval has the basics right but could enhance the app a bit. The light units themselves are great, and the ability to program them on a smart app makes them best in class for the average hobbyist.

Very well built and solid fixture. Has some nice weight to it. Very bright. Really nice that you can set up sun rise and sun set modes and you can adjust the intensity as well.As others have mentioned, having built in risers would be a great idea. It does sit very close to the water surface. I'm getting some very light splashing from my sponge filter at the surface.

I have four (2-48” and 2-32”) of these lights and they are the best available for plant growth. The ability to program the gradual on and off and spectrum of each one is excellent. The only downside is the cost. But they are definitely worth it. My original three were bought many years ago and still work like new.

I love this light. That said its gross overkill. Even with CO2 this light is so bright it was actually killed all my floating plants and was causing my fish to hide. The adjustable settings and multicolored custom programable LEDs are great fun for human users and can be used to make very cool colored displays in your tank. I absolutely recommend it, however if you are on a budget, there are many comparable options that are just as high quality and $100 less.

Arrive 4 days after placing order. Well packaged and in excellent shape. Pricey but the best led I have used.ProsHigh PAR value compared to other led aquarium lights.Many unlimited light options for color.Can set various light intensities, duration and cycles.Waterproof.Has app for iPhone to control led features.ConsWould be nice to have ability to set many of the light functions on the led light itself instead of having to go through iPhone all the time.Would be nice to have battery in led in case of power failure.Would be nice if manual talked about various light settings for different size tanks and plant types.Would be nice to control led through a windows computer, maybe an optional remote to set it up?

This light did more for me than any other light I’ve had! The plants def love this light!! Each picture is only 2 weeks difference between eachother! A month in total.

Nice fit for a cabinet (long and narrow) style fish tank. No algae growth, plants are doing good and the auto daytime/night app works perfect.

First thing is this light is extremely well built. The chassis is heavy duty aluminum and is sleek. The cord length is great and allows for proper placement without having to try to place the transformer in places to accommodate. The app is ok and honestly you can achieve excating levels of each color of light and time. It could be better by being able to drag the lines on the graph for time and light level but its not a deal killer and an update to the app would fix that if they desired. Back to the light, I like the way it mounts but if you want it higher off the tank you will need to make or find a way to do so. I wis they would include a set of bent wires to use if the straight hangers were not wanted. Again not a deal killer because the light itself is every bit worth the cost. The led board looks good and there seems to be great heat disposal built in. As of right now i have no gripes with this light.
