Just wondering, is it OK to leave your tank light on 24 / 7? Does it affect the fish in any way?
Hy there! My real Danilov name is and I am a veterinarian specializing in exotic and tropical fish. I have more than 150 species in my private aquarium (s). I think I can help with your question. Light day recommended for an aquarium is about 16h/day. As the person who answered above me, it depends on if you have aquatic plants. But do not forget the reason Home made by the question: Is this much light effect the fish. The answer is yes. When I started this hobby of mine that fish was about 13 years age. My dad bought me a tank of 12 liters (tank) and a filtering device based on the air, you know the THW with a sponge. I had no money for a neon to fish, so we stayed only in sunlight. The fish was very good, I mean that there was no problem with the lighting. When placed in artificial light, their food supply pattern changed, and his son, began to die. My advice. Do not store 24 / 7 in the neon light. during the day, turn off the light (s). You find This also economic, your electric bill will drop considerably.
