I'm running it in a 90g saltwater fish only. light output is fantastic. But I don't know about grow capability. My local store is selling this for $350.

I never tried in fresh water but my previous experience I can said good in fresh water. The corals request to much lights than plants. You will be fine in fresh water and you can get very good effects.

Well I used mine on a 55g and it worked just fine used it for about a year until I got a bigger tank so I had to get a bigger one but yea worked fine

I think this pump would handle a 55 gal. tank That's probably on the upper level limit of its capability. I personally us it for smaller containers-but don't have to turn it up full.

I have a 55 gallon tank and 2 works perfect. Comes with the whole top. Popped the old one out and new ones fit right in

I have this in a 5 gal and it has worked wonderfully for my Betta. I added a good filter and cycled it first.Curious as to what you would put in a 1 gal, the smaller the tank the harder it it to maintain and it requires almost daily water changes when this small

I have the same fixture over my 55, and it has a decent space between the light and the top of the tank to allow for heat exchange. It'll be fine with a glass top.

I am very sorry I don't know much about this, but so far it is very good. I have 15 gal. tank only. Thanks

I would say it would do a good job in a 45gal tall tank the light is very intense on my 29gal and i have a well planted aquarium. Medium to low level light. Plants will be sufficent probaly not a high light plant though

I just used this gravel with no additional fertilizers ect and the aquatic bulbs I planted are doing great, the fish as well. This was in a brand new un-cycled tank.

We have one on our 55 gal. tank which is 48L x 12W x 20H. I would recommend you use two for enough light for your tank. One is adequate for our tank and much brighter than the flourescent fixture we had previously.

I have a 37 gallons planted tank and it's working for me. I'm using all 3 light modules though. So you may want to consider doing the same thing.

If you're concerned about bacteria levels in serious sized tanks, please consult with an aquarium store or service and not a pet store chain. Just asking means you know more than I. Product web site and or Internet may have your answer also. For the device in question, it's often slow to appear effective. I would use a larger unit for 55g tank and expect to wait 24 hours per 10 gallons for results. But the results are awesome. I use one in every tank. Crystal clear effect is no exaggeration.

1 is barely enough 2 shouldn't hurt I have 2500gph in my 55 and it could take more a good rule of thumb go salt water is "a minimum of 20gph flow per 1 gallon of tank volume" so a 55 needs a minimum of 2100 gph also just watch your aquarium and give it what it likes

I have a 60 gallon and from what I have seen as long as you can maintain 80psi you should be fine. Hope this helps.

If you are growing "easy" low demand aquarium plants you will be fine. I also use FLOURISH with good results. If you are growing water lillys you cant feed them enough so you will have to add fertilizer spikes
