Yes, just like you, he needs day & nighttime.

Spread a thin layer of vaseline on the back, apply the backing, then use a credit card to spackle it out smooth. Have paper towels handy for the excess that will squeeze out. I've heard vegetable or mineral oil works as well.

Get a cheap timer for the light.

The timer she is talking about, you set the time you want the light to come on and go off at. I have on on my tank and it kicks on at 9am and goes off at 5. It will help you from getting an algae problem later down the road, and is better for the fish
