LED lighting in aquariams has some distinct advantages over other methods of lighting. These advantages include but are not necessarily limited to the LED lights last longer, therefore they do not need to be changed out as often, they do not require as much electricity to run, and they do not add as much heat to the water which would require a cooler of some sort. In the end LED lights are less expensive overall.
The advantages to LED lighting in aquariums are that they run much cooler than other light sources, and use less energy. They also have a much longer lifespan than other lighting options. You will not ever have to worry about fillament breaking and falling into your tank either. Please weigh the options before chosing lighting for your tank. If you have live plants and special fish you may need a special kind of fixture.
