Lamp‑Switching Guidelines Sequence & Gradual Lighting: When turning lights off, switch off the aquarium light first, then the indoor lights. For switching on, reverse the order: turn on indoor lights before activating the aquarium lamp. Avoid sudden on‑off operations, which may frighten fish.
Electrical Safety Waterproof Protection: Use waterproof light fixtures and wiring terminals to guarantee electrical safety. Prevent short‑circuits or electric shocks caused by water splashes and damp conditions.
Heat Dissipation & Explosion‑proof Care Ventilation Holes: Keep ventilation openings at both ends or the top of the lamp holder. This allows heat generated by tubes to dissipate promptly and avoids tube explosion from accumulated heat.
Lighting Duration & Regular Schedule Timed On‑Off Cycle: Limit daily lighting time to 8‑12 hours. Stick to a fixed lighting schedule to help aquatic organisms build conditioned reflexes, supporting their healthy growth.
Cleaning & Maintenance Regular Wiping: Wipe dust off light tubes and holders on a routine basis to maintain brightness and reduce light loss. Always disconnect the power supply before cleaning for safety.
Tube Replacement Periodic Renewal: Light brightness fades after long‑term use, so replace tubes in a timely manner. It is generally recommended to replace tubes every 3 months. For high‑end fixtures, the replacement cycle can be extended to 6 months.
Following the above precautions ensures safe, efficient operation of your aquarium lighting system and creates a suitable living environment for aquatic life.
