Usage notes and practical considerations

There are two simple modes: all lights on or all lights off. There is no timer and brightness isn’t adjustable, so you’ll rely on a steady spectrum rather than programmable schedules. Important safety note: the light is not waterproof, so keep it away from splashing water to protect the electronics.

• Mode: on or off; no timer; fixed brightness
• Not waterproof; avoid splashing water
• Best suited for freshwater environments as described
