While we all know that LEDs are not the magic free light for no electricity devices we were all led to believe they were back in the aughts, they are actually rather more efficient than the T5 fluorescent fixture ever was. 21 Watts of LED lighting in this 18-24″ fixture will produce almost twice as much light as the current 96 Watt T5 fixture did when it was fully functional. I’m putting $50 towards the total cost of $153. I know not everyone can or wants to put any money towards this, so don’t feel any pressure, but I also think that a lot of people appreciate the aquariums and would like to see them stay healthy and happy.
