"So we used tape."

PAR readings were taken with an apogee par meter. I eventually saw the tracking slip and it was terrible. I've had other Nicrew lights on other tanks and they have all performed well for me. It's a simple design, easy and intuitive to set up, adjustable and fits great. I'm very happy with the light performance. I may purchase this if I decide to start a frag tank. This light does a great job and grows plants in a rapid rate.

WEAVERBIRD Final Thoughts

"I'd recommend it."

I purchased 2 of these lights for my 90 gal reef tank. I bought the smaller one without realizing it. This tank is 15 years old with lps and sps corals. I am so in love with this lights and looking forward to start a new planted tank. The second pic is my old Top Fin light for comparison. I've had other Nicrew lights on other tanks and they have all performed well for me. You'll have to DIY it, and even then it might not look great.

"Using on 37 gal cube."

It has multiple settings, dimmer and a TIMER! If you're considering using the LED stick-on lights to upgrade- don't bother. For the price range of this light that is truly outstanding customer service. Even the torch, frogspawn and brain at the bottom of the tank is doing well. I would highly recommend this light for anyone looking. Also note this is an initial impression review. The timers are exactly what I needed to create sunrise and sunset effect.

WEAVERBIRD Final Thoughts

"The lightning is great."

The purple hue bugged me that much I returned it. My standard 10 gallon tank's hood finally crapped out on me. I purchased 2 of these lights for my 90 gal reef tank. All my plants doubled in size in a month as shown in the pictures. They immediately sent out the package via UPS but UPS lost it. Compared to the original Classic, the Plus model is a very nice upgrade. This one beats them all and now Im going to have to get back into some stem plants.

"I have two reef tanks."

Most lights make it still so dark you can't see. The corals look beautiful and the color spectrum is great. I actually thought the tank had constant algae blooms before I got this light. This light does a great job and grows plants in a rapid rate. It's so bright, I was concerned that I would bleach the corals at the 1 setting. This one beats them all and now Im going to have to get back into some stem plants. Thanks u so much Hygger for all the amazing equipment u offer.

I added a moon light separately and all is good. This will also give you the blue lights while the whites are on throughout the day. The entire process took only a few days. I eventually saw the tracking slip and it was terrible. This light is amazing, especially for the price. I purchased this item for my daughters Aqua plant tank.

"Using on 37 gal cube."

Most lights make it still so dark you can't see. The timer mode utilized seems like the only timer mode I wouldn't really ever want. I bought the smaller one without realizing it. Sadly I can't really use it yet because the glass canopy I ordered hasn’t arrived. I would highly recommend this light for anyone looking. Best of all you see the true color of your plants and fish. I actually thought the tank had constant algae blooms before I got this light.

"Acting completely normal."

Best of all you see the true color of your plants and fish. However, each brings a distinct look to the tank. If you're considering using the LED stick-on lights to upgrade- don't bother. This is another awsome product from hygger. It has multiple settings, dimmer and a TIMER! Thia works fantastic for my 75 G salt tank. They did well enough during the time I had them.

"I did not."

I'd use it for a frag tank or maybe even a coral QT. The last pic is the blue setting on the NICREW light. The 300w light is 16lbs, so I wouldn't trust using drywall anchors to mount it. I thought they were fairly easy to set up. So my ALL Blues run alone one hour before and an hour after. No bad algae, Corals show great expansion, nice growth, and good coloration. This light is even better than I expected!

"Switch has 3 settings."

Just got this light today, and WOW! It has multiple settings, dimmer and a TIMER! They truly stand behind their products for the full 1 year warranty. What happens when you mix a lot of blue with a little red. My only concern is that the lowest setting is very bright. The daytime lights are MUCH brighter than the lights my Top Fin hood has built in. I really wanted to like this light, but ultimately it didn't work for me.

Trust me u will not be disappointed! The remote that comes with the light leaves a lot to be desired. But I will stick with the Nicrew classic LED PLUS as it also has full spectrum. I am very pleased and plan to get the smaller version for my betta tank. It's not too bright and not too dim. Thanks u so much Hygger for all the amazing equipment u offer.

"No issues out of the box."

You just position it over the glass strip where the old strip light used to sit. I've had these lights for three weeks and so far they are AWESOME.

"Using on 37 gal cube."

I am running 20 something aquariums and have multiple lights running in my fishroom. This is the second Nicrew light I have purchased for my aquariums. We just run the bright lights during the day. Like most led strips, this is low profile and thin. When I added this light my plants where not looking well at all. I actually thought the tank had constant algae blooms before I got this light. Therefore you cannot use this fixture on a customer timer.

"Actual length of the 7."

The corals look beautiful and the color spectrum is great. My standard 10 gallon tank's hood finally crapped out on me. The adjustable brightness levels are awesome too. I really like that I can get a 24-hour effect with the timer. You'll have to DIY it, and even then it might not look great. However, each brings a distinct look to the tank. I purchased three of these for my 240 gallon reef tank and they work incredibly well.
