Fish + Black Light = Bad?

I was considering the possibility of lighting a fish tank with a black light, but was wondering if the UV rays would hurt the fishies. Would it be safe or is it not a good idea?

Answer #1

I think it is safe, it wouldn’t hurt the fishies :) However it is meant for preventing masses of algae..it is meant for a heavily planted tank. I don’t see it doing wrong though.

Answer #2

I’ve heard that the fish may go blind if you use a black light. Is there any truth to this?

Answer #3

I’ve heard that using a black light in your tank can cause the fish to go blind. Is there any truth to this?

Answer #4
