Also, the OP has already employed a different option...  |
As I know, every optical level sensor uses Infrared lighting including AUTOAQUA, Tunze...
For Led lighting, it is no problem unless there is infrared led inside it. For T5,T8 lighting, it's a full spectrum lighting and there is a few portion of infrared, so this could influence the detection. I think the lighting should be very close to the sensor to provide the enough power to sensor.
