It is instinct for fish to hide from danger. It is normal for some fish to hide from the light.
Yes, a broken light on a fish tank can usually be replaced. You'll need to find a replacement light that is compatible with your fish tank's specifications and then follow the instructions for installing it safely. It's important to take proper precautions when working around water and electricity.
fish dont actually sleep; they have no eyelids. scientists dont know for sure but they think that they go into a state of rest. It can be hard to tell if a fish is sleeping; they might float motionless, float on bottom of tank or hide in tank decor.
You should be aiming for between 8 and 12 hours. about the same time as the sun is up. this helps with the natural environment of the tank, the plants will grow nicely, there wont be loads of algae everywhere, and your fish will behave more naturally. this can obviously be adjusted to suit when you will be looking at the tank, after all your paying for it :P. I have mine on around 11am-9pm because this is when im most likely to be home! too light can lead to an algae bloom and make your tank go green, if this happens don't leave your tank on for so long. it might also help to keep natural sun light off of the tank. tom :)
Not in its self. The fish could jump out of the tank and land outside the tank, though.

A fish tank needs a light to provide illumination for the fish and plants inside. Light helps fish see, regulates their biological functions, and promotes the growth of plants through photosynthesis.
Turn the light off or get a smarter fish.
They are slightly shy fish that will hide behind and inside tank ornaments, then at night (when the lights are out),they will come out of hiding and eat.
There really isn't much that you can do. The babies will have to fend for themselves. If you have plants and such in the tank they may be able to hide, but a few will be found by hungry adult fish.

that depends what you want to do with the tank if you want a planted tank then dont go with a LED light inless the plants are very hardy and dont require a lot of light. if its just for fish go with the LED light. i have a LED light on my fish tank and my fish are doing great. i dont have any plants but i might get some hardy, low light ones. LED also saves energy
