Aquarium lighting

+1 on everything here. Also, you could notice an increase in different kinds of unwanted algae

Is algae bad for fish?

Only the very rare fish actually 'sleeps' per se'. The lighting is entirely for you, they are far more used to a darker world and having no lights at all would be perfectly acceptable to them. That being said, you can leave your LED light wand on if you prefer. Its entirely up to you, if you notice any abnormal behaviors developing it might be something to revisit. It can also inhibit certain natural breeding behaviors, but if you find it calming it should not be detrimental to your pets.

I tried searching this but couldn't find a clear answer.

Is anything wrong with leaving the fluorescent lights on at night? Does it keep the fish awake ? When do fish sleep? I have a 21"color changing LED light wand that makes bubbles, can I leave it on all the time? Do the bubbles keep them awake? Thanks in advance for the advice
