Thanks to my grandmother, I have been deep in the waters of fish keeping since I was a little kid. I currently have three tanks in my home and one pond in the backyard. One of the tanks is in my office and it never fails to keep me at peace. The second I feel stress coming on, I turn around and watch the various fish zoom about and the plants sway to the current.

A few months ago, I opted to purchase a pair of the Hygger 18W LED lights and have found them to be the perfect addition to one of my tanks. Not only are they plenty bright (even for a small planted tank) but they also can be automated to gradually dim to a moonlight glow and then brighten in the morning to a full-spectrum light.
