I have two lights and about to get a third.
I have a 36 inch day night plant light strip style and a plant pro 100 for my rimless tank. Love them both. Plants grow great and the string lights bring out the greens very well. I’m about to buy a second plant pro 100 I love the first one so much.
Powerful and QUIET little pump
Powerful and QUIET little pump. I use a splitter and air stones in hydroponic plants and the hugger pump is the quietest one I’ve tried!
Works well when installed properly
After giving a poor review, I was contacted by Emma at Hygger, asking for more details on the severe inaccuracy I was experiencing. During the ongoing checks & suggestions, I moved the heater from its spot near the return pump inlet to below the overflow return outlet (very high flows). That resolved most of the issues. It seems that a strong "push" flow around the heater works much better than a low "pull" flow. The heater is working more or less properly, sufficient for my needs. Now let's hope it lasts a bit longer than the first Hygger 500W (which lasted only 2yrs before the built-in probe gave a fatal error code)
Very reliable equipment love it

This was my first time ordering from…
This was my first time ordering from Hygger, had got myself a hygger 5-in-1 electric aquarium gravel cleaner, which had arrived badly taped and parts of the device is broken. Unable to use, I emailed their customer service and asked for a spare part since it had arrived, it's been almost two months since the email, with no tracking number and only an apology email with a 15% discount code. Would not recommend unless you like to be scammed by this company.
My heating sounded an alarm
My heating sounded an alarm, I didn't know how to deal with it. The customer service asked me about the detailesand replaced me with a new one. These were completed within 2 days. Thank you very much

Have purchased three of the Hygger Auto On Off 30-36 Inch LED Aquarium Light Extendable Dimable 7 Colors Full Spectrum Light Fixture for Freshwater Planted Tank with Build in Timer Sunrise Sunset. Have had replace two of the power converters over three years. Other wise they work effectively. Will order the Hygger Auto On Off 48-55 Inch LED Aquarium Light for another tank.
Hugger sent out a product with all the…proper address yet again
Hugger sent out a product with all the appropriate information. Fed Ex did not deliver that product to my address. When I called Fed Ex they were rude and offered no resolution. Were adamant that the shipper errored. I sent Hugger a detailed email regarding their lack of concern or even an investigation. Hugger contacted myself. Via email and assured they would send me another pump. They did through Fed Ex again no the less. It was delivered to me this past Saturday. Hats off to the Hugger Company for making good and satisfying a disappointing circumstance. Their customer service goes above and beyond
Purchased hygger heater through Amazon…
Purchased hygger heater through Amazon in 2023 the heater is good but the suction cups to attach heater to glass stopped keeping heater where it was fixed. Reached out to customer services, received reply saying could be supplied at a cost of 8 dollars. In England we don't use dollars it's pound sterling. Replied to this and answer came back i can pay by pay pal and had to send a screenshot of transaction. Surely a company of reputation does not need this. Advised hygger team i did not have or require a pay pal account.Then reply came back pay by bank transfer still requesting screenshot. Surely this is not a satisfactory way to deal with customers
Don't buy
Don't buy from this company, sent me a bad product and won't answer emails.
Bad products
I have store, I only sell Hygger products, heaters won’t last 6 months and stop working, customers comeback and gets replacement. Since warranty is 1 yr, I need to replace ghe defective heaters, I have tried since last yr communicating with my hygger rep Tracy, she was avoiding me and finally just 3 weeks ago re responded.. I provided pictures and she would replace the defective items but I have to pay for shipping from China. Don’t buy the heaters you’re wasting you money!! Now thats whats happening to me!! Lost profit and lost the trust of my customer.
Excellent costumer service

Hang on the back 7w 20-40 gal are awesome 👍
Terrible purchasing experience
Purchased a pump directly from Hygger and the experience was and still is a nightmare. They sent a FedEx tracking number but it was heading 2000 miles in the opposite direction. They mixed my address up with a gentleman in Ohio. Terrible customer service, tag email with a 2 to 3 day turn just to answer questions about what to do and when to expect my original purchase. I just want a refund at this point but I'm still waiting on a reply. Can't review the product but I'm never going to purchase direct from Hygger.

Poor ordering experience
I purchased an aquarium light on sale directly from the Hygger website. After a week, customer service contacted me and said the light was out of stock. They denied any type of discount for purchasing a more expensive light.
Overall, disappointed in the poor ordering experience and customer service.
Best deals in the hobby!
Terrific products. Unbeatable value. I bought a freshwater planted light, air pump, heater and canister filter. When I did have an issue with the canister filter I purchased, they addressed it immediately and sent another.
I have already made several subsequent orders. Excellent overall experience.
Hygger No Go
I purchased a light off of amazon for a coral tank. I purchased it in May and didn't use it until September. By November, the light would turn off and on. I finally contacted Hygger beginning February to see if anything can be fixed. I never got a straight answer. I sent them photos and videos of the problem. Still nothing. They also have not returned my money for the light. I will never buy any of their products again.
Hygger HG999-36w
Ordered 3 x HG999-36w one Dec. 19, 2024, received all 3 on Dec 24th, unfortunately one wall power source was defective and the light would not power up, contacted customer service shortly after on the same day, found a response email when i awoke the next morning from Kitty.
She simply asked for a video showing the concern and was able to send me info letting me know that the new component would be shipped out asap.
Several days later i received the new wall power unit and all has worked flawlessly since.
Since then i have ordered and received and setup 3 additional, 2 x 26w and a 42w bringing my total to 8 HG999 models on my tanks growing plants and working flawlessly. Top notch product.
