aquarium light

Fish tank lamp

An aquarium light is a lamp designed specifically for fish tanks, providing illumination for viewing and supporting the health of fish and aquatic plants.

Different types—fluorescent, LED, or specialized grow lights—serve different purposes, from basic visibility to promoting photosynthesis in planted tanks: The aquarium light runs on a timer to simulate natural daylight cycles.
