FAQ frequently asked questions

Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions about shipping and ordering, as well as technical details about our premium aquarium LED strips and light controls.

If you have any further questions, we are at your service.

1. LEDs

Choose the number and light colours of the eco+ and/or PRO² LED bars. If you are uncertain or have any queries, please consult the relevant product descriptions, light comparison and the "frequent questions".

2. Power supply

A mains adapter (and if necessary a distributor/splitter if you intend to use more than one LED bar without a light control system) must be ordered separately.

Now you already have the basic components for an LED lighting system, everything else is optional:

3. Accessories

Extension cables, dimmers, daylight simulation system or fastenings are optional accessories and can be ordered at the same time according to need. A system that is simply switched on and off does not require the above optional accessories!

4. Delivery

The goods are delivered by the insured parcel service. You will receive your consignment number by e-mail, which will allow you to track your delivery online.  Normally, you should have your new lighting in your hands within 1-3 days of placing your order. Details of payment and delivery

5. Installation

You have various options for installing LED bars:

  • You use our deLUX or pure aquarium cover and insert the LED strips into the light profile.
  • To install LED bar(s) in existing T5 or T8 waterproof tube sockets, we offer special holders.
  • Silicone feet. They allow you to install LED bars very simply, e.g. on the transverse or longitudinal struts or even on the cover plate.
  • Our lamp housing is manufactured in aluminium to a modern-looking design and has a very slender cross section. It is particularly suitable for open or glass/acrylic-covered aquariums and can be individually configured with our LED bars. The free choice of fastenings means it can be flexibly used as a side-mounted lamp, suspended lamp or as a frame-mounted lamp as well as inside the aquarium cover.
  • With the LED adapter profile, JUWEL and EHEIM aquariums can be upgraded very quickly to a modern LED lighting system. The existing conventional T5 or T8 batten fittings can be replaced 1 for 1 and the cover plates retained.
  • U-profile as longitudinal or cross support for LED bars. For easy and flexible mounting of the lighting, also inside a cover.
  • If you don't choose one of the above mentioned solutions, 2 screws 2,9x6,5mm are included in delivery which you can use to fix the LED-strip directly.
  • Among our "individual and replacement parts" you can find everything you need for a customised installation.

6. Connection and Commissioning

To connect the LED light, link it to the power supply adapter, distributor, dimmer, or daylight simulator according to the diagram shown on the right. Ensure that the polarity (+/-) is correct! Recommended tools include a voltage tester or screwdriver. Always pay close attention to the maximum load capacity and the performance of each product, depending on the power supply used and the number of connected LED bars. Refer to the product descriptions or technical data for relevant performance information.
