eco+ LED bar PLANT-GROW

The eco+ Model stands out for its unbeatable value for money and an impressive variety of options.

Description:

Discover the revolution in aquarium and terrarium lighting: Our eco+ series LED bars in the PLANT-GROW variant! Unlike the GROWx5, the PLANT-GROW combines all light spectrums necessary for optimal plant growth and photosynthesis in a single chip. The result: A brilliant, consistent light that intensifies the colorful brilliance of your aquarium.

The PLANT-GROW LED bar is ideally suited as an optional light when paired with other "white" light colors, as it has a slight lilac/violet hue on its own. It's the modern answer to the popular GROLUX fluorescent tube. Plus, you can choose from 7 different lengths ranging from 20 to 140 cm, ensuring it perfectly fits your unique needs.

Craving more flexibility? Use multiple LED bars, whether of the same or different light colors, for captivating and visually pleasing day simulations. The light needs of your habitat depend on its size, setup, planting, and inhabitants. For more valuable tips and recommended combinations, check our FAQ and our Light Comparison, which showcases the best light color combinations in direct photo comparison.

Caution! This product is a waterproof LED bar (IP67), which can also be used inside the aquarium cover to a freshwater tank. The permanent presence of moisture, the build up of dirt or lime deposits can adversely affect the light quality, output and service life of the LED bars. Therefore we recommend that our CleanCovers are used within the aquarium cover. LED bars cool passively by using the surrounding air. Therefore, there must be an adequate circulation of air. As a rule, the openings for cables and hoses in the cover are adequate for this purpose. Further information. Cautionary advice if the product is used in a seawater environment, see FAQ!
