Bioscape LED Freshwater Pendant 35w
Hangs above the tank on its own bracket, so nothing rests on or clips to the aquarium rim. The Bioscape LED Freshwater Pendant is a 35W, fan-cooled 6500K light designed for small freshwater aquariums, suspended clear of the water and mounted using the separately sold Bioscape LED Bracket.
Key features
- 35W fan-cooled LED — actively cooled rather than passively vented, helping the fixture run reliably at full output over long photoperiods.
- 6500K daylight spectrum — a white light spectrum suited to both plant growth and natural-looking viewing.
- Suspended mounting — hangs clear of the tank on the Bioscape LED Bracket, sold separately, rather than clipping to or resting on the rim.

Will it fit my tank?
Designed for small freshwater aquariums. Because it's a suspended fixture rather than a clip-on or rim-mounted light, fit depends on the bracket it hangs from — see the Bioscape LED Bracket, rated to 12mm glass — rather than a glass thickness rating for the pendant itself. Bioscape hasn't published a coverage width or recommended tank size range for this fixture.
What's included / Not included
Includes the pendant light fixture. Does not include the mounting bracket — the Bioscape LED Bracket is sold separately and is required to suspend the pendant above the tank.
Suitable for, and not suitable for
Suitable for small freshwater aquariums wanting an open-top, suspended light with a daylight spectrum. Not suitable as a marine or reef light — Bioscape markets this specifically as a freshwater fixture, and no PAR-at-depth data is published to confirm it can support light-demanding corals.
Running costs and noise
Fan-cooled, so it isn't silent — Bioscape hasn't published a noise figure in dB. At a typical 8 hours a day, 35W works out to around 102 kWh a year, roughly $31 a year at 30c/kWh. Bioscape hasn't published the fixture's operating voltage; check the plug pack or packaging for AU electrical ratings.
Warranty and delivery
Covered against manufacturing defects under Bioscape's warranty, in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law.

Common questions
Does the mounting bracket come with the light?
No — the Bioscape LED Bracket is sold separately and is needed to suspend this pendant above your tank.
Is this suitable for a marine or reef tank?
No, Bioscape markets it as a freshwater fixture and doesn't publish PAR data to support reef use.
Is it silent running?
No — it's fan-cooled, though Bioscape hasn't published a noise level.
What tank size does the 35W suit?
Bioscape hasn't published a specific tank size range; it's positioned as a small freshwater aquarium fixture. Contact us if you want help matching wattage to your tank size.
