- High Quality Fish Tank Light: Features 5 rows of high brightness LED light beads for optimal light penetration. A scientific combination of white, red, green, and blue light beads supports plant growth. The ABS shell ensures good heat dissipation, and retractable metal stands allow for adjustable fit.
- 3 Light Modes: Select from Full Spectrum (white+red+blue+green), White Light, or Colorful Light (red+blue+green) modes via external controller buttons. Choose the appropriate mode based on your fish and plant needs.
- DIY Brightness Adjustment: White light and colorful light modes offer 10 brightness levels (3%-100%). Separate dimming for white and colored lights allows for 100 combinations of full-spectrum modes.
- 3 Timing Modes: Set the light to operate for 5H, 10H, or 12H. Once set, the timer cycles daily. For example, a 5-hour timer set at 8:00 a.m. will automatically turn off at 1:00 p.m. and repeat daily.
- Memory Function: The light retains its settings after a power failure. If a power outage occurs during a timed program, the program will be postponed by the duration of the outage.

Operating Instructions
Light Modes
The AQQA Aquarium Light offers three primary lighting modes, selectable via the external controller:
- Full Spectrum Light Mode: Combines white, red, blue, and green LEDs to provide a balanced spectrum ideal for plant growth and vibrant fish colors.
- White Light Mode: Provides bright white illumination, suitable for general viewing and promoting photosynthesis.
- Colorful Light Mode: Utilizes red, blue, and green LEDs to create a dynamic and aesthetically pleasing ambiance in your aquarium.

Brightness Adjustment
Both White Light Mode and Colorful Light Mode feature 10 adjustable brightness levels, ranging from 3% to 100%. The white and colored lights can be dimmed separately, allowing for up to 100 unique full-spectrum combinations.

Timing Modes
The light includes three preset timing modes:
- 5 Hours (5H)
- 10 Hours (10H)
- 12 Hours (12H)
Once a timing mode is selected, the light will automatically turn on and off at the set interval each day. For example, if you set a 5-hour timer at 8:00 a.m., the light will turn off at 1:00 p.m. and repeat this cycle daily until changed.
Memory Function
The AQQA Aquarium Light is equipped with a power failure memory function. In the event of a power outage, the light will resume its previous settings once power is restored. If a timer program was active, the program will be delayed by the exact duration of the power outage.

Maintenance
Cleaning
- Regularly wipe the light fixture with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, water spots, and algae buildup.
- Ensure the light is unplugged before cleaning.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the fixture.
Waterproof Design
The light fixture is IP68 waterproof, meaning it is protected against continuous immersion in water. However, the external controller is not waterproof and should be kept dry.

The IP68 waterproof design ensures durability and safety even if the lamp is accidentally submerged in water.
Troubleshooting
