New light!

Okie, so my 29g tank light finally died. (the light build itself, not the lamp)

So I went to the old bulb box and picked out a new one. That’s when I saw what I was missing! I found an LED one that looks great. (See Photos below) (Excuse my terrible camera)

What do you guys think? Do you think it looks better or worse?

Looks brighter to me

I know!

I was concerned it was to bright...

I think it may be too bright for neon tetras, remember they like shade and the plants help but that light is very bright.

I agree. It looks good but the neons were probably happier with the dimmer light

Just looked at this thread again and saw your little shrimpies. Cute maybe consider raising the water level a bit?

It looks great. There are still lots of shady areas.

I took the new photo right in the middle of a water change, lol.

Yep! I have over 70 cherry shrimp in there. They breed like rabbits, lol.
