Is it better to leave the tank light on or off when you go on vacation?

Get a timer at Home Depot for $10. Neither are good options.

You could also spend about $25 and get a WiFi outlet controller. Then you could turn the lights on and off with your phone while you’re away. I don’t yet have an aquarium controller system, but I can pull up a camera to see my tank and control my lights from apps in my phone.
If you use Alexa, you can set this one up on a routine, or control it manually.

There are plenty that you don’t need Alexa to use. Just download their app.
