How to install your Aqua Smart LED lighting
- The power supply transformer is not waterproof – this must be mounted such that it cannot fall into the aquarium or be splashed by water.
- The cable must be installed with a drip loop to prevent any water running down the cable into the plug socket.
There are three options for fitting the Aqua Smart LED lighting unit
-
Direct replacement fit with adjustable end brackets for open top tanks
-
If not already fitted, push fit the adjustable end brackets onto both ends of the dual extruded housing (3), see illustration on pack. Ensure cable exits out of cable tunnel and then down to the back of the aquarium safely.
-
Slide end brackets ( l) so that the bracket lips fit securely onto the aquarium edge as illustrated. Each size is adjustable to fit a range of different size aquariums, see packaging for suitable size.
-
Under Hood location with adjustable end brackets for retrofit
No need to remove the brackets for fitting.- Adjust the retrofit end brackets (l) to the desired length.
- Ensure the hood material is thicker than the length of the retrofit screws (2) provided to prevent them protruding through the outer surface.
- Using the self-tapping screws provided fix the bracket in position using the fixing holes in the bracket.
Top tip … If using retrofit screws is not possible, all-round plastic / metal glue could be used to attach the bracket instead, for example: 502 super adhesive glue. Always follow the glue manufacturer’s instructions fully.

T8/T5 Light Adapters
Aqua Smart comes complete with T8/f5 light adapters so they can fit a wide variety of fluorescent lighting units. Simply clip the TS Adapter end (4) onto the adjustable end brackets (l) at both ends and choose between the larger T8 fitting or smaller TS fitting (see image below). It’s a snap fit onto the end of the adjustable end bracket ( l) which can be removed with a small screwdriver if needed.

separately. Compatible with both iOS and Android. Download the Free Aqua Smart
