Choosing between sizes

This fixture spans 23–35 in; Fluval Plant 4.0 22W spans 15–24 in. The two sizes don’t fit the same tanks, so choose by your tank’s length, not by the family name.

Before choosing this model

  • Match fixture span and tank depth.
  • Compare published depth-specific PAR with plant demand.
  • Confirm phone compatibility before depending on app-only controls.
