StockEwe49 Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Hi all, I figured I would update those who helped me figure out a Nano tank. I just picked up an Aqueon Frameless cube 6 gal. In light of this (get it light 🙂 ), what are your favorite lights? This is going to be a planted tank, and I am still debating between a pea puffer or shrimp.  FYI: Petco had a sale 50% off frameless Aquariums, Black Friday? Go get one! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streetwise Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Fluval Plant Nano 3.0, for rimless, or with the 3D-printed rimmed adapter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameCzar Posted November 26, 2021 Share Posted November 26, 2021 With the 6 cube frameless, you're good to order several brands of the clip on lights.  We went cheap for ours, as long as you stick with low-light plants your options are pretty open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StockEwe49 Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 I think I wanted to have pearl weed in the tank, Is that high light? @GameCzar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stef Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I like the Finnex Stingray Clip light for these frameless tanks. They only have two  light settings, tho. My easy plants are doing well. I also like the flexible arm. Looks sharp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosedub Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I have the finnex planted plus clip on light and the color from it is very attractive. It also has a gooseneck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I do not run nano tanks so can’t give a favorite but Aqueon clip ons grow massive algae for me. I got one for a plant grow out. Had to put electrical tape over all the blue lights. It still grew algae 🤨 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streetwise Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 As much as I like my lights, nano and pico tanks can grow well in windows. You might have to create and manage shade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StockEwe49 Posted November 27, 2021 Author Share Posted November 27, 2021 @Guppysnail I have heard they are very strong. And I never knew till recently that blue light grows algae! Thanks everyone for commenting, I am interested in clip-on lights more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
