Description

Introducing the AquaIllumination Blade Coral Grow 66 Inch Smart LED Strip. The AquaIllumination Blade Coral Grow 66 Inch Smart LED Strip is a powerful yet sleek lighting solution designed to meet the essential photosynthetic needs of corals in reef aquariums. Engineered to deliver intense, targeted light, the Coral Grow features a carefully balanced spectrum composed of deep blue, blue, and white diodes. This combination maximises the spectral peaks within the 400-500 nm range, which is scientifically proven to enhance coral photosynthesis and promote healthy growth. Whether used as a standalone grow light or combined with the Blade Glow for added fluorescence, the Blade Grow provides the optimal light environment to support robust coral development and vitality.

The LED layout within the Blade Grow employs a cluster group configuration, with approximately one cluster per foot of the 66-inch strip. Each cluster contains 24 diodes, meticulously arranged to ensure an even distribution of light and a natural shimmer effect that mimics sunlight filtering through water. The diode mix includes 12 royal blue, 6 cool white, and 6 blue LEDs, creating a balanced spectral output that effectively addresses the needs of a diverse range of coral species. This precise arrangement not only enhances coral growth but also contributes to the overall aesthetic appeal of the aquarium by producing vibrant, natural-looking shimmer and colour blending along the length of the strip.

EdgeField Optics, an integral feature of the Blade platform, play a crucial role in delivering uniform PAR and smooth colour mixing across the tank. Designed exclusively for this system, the optics provide a broad 95-degree spread, ensuring consistent light coverage from end to end. The specular exit surface enhances the shimmer effect, creating a crisp, natural glow that elevates the visual impact of the reef environment. The combination of advanced optics and precise diode placement results in minimal hotspots and shadows, promoting an even and healthy light distribution that benefits both the corals and the overall tank aesthetics.

Constructed with durability and efficiency in mind, the Blade Coral Grow measures 66.1 inches in length with a slim profile of just 0.7 inches in height and 2.8 inches in width. It consumes 140 watts of power, providing high-intensity illumination while maintaining energy efficiency. Rated IP66 for water resistance, it is suitable for the humid conditions of marine tanks. The passive cooling system, coupled with a highly efficient heat sink design, ensures consistent performance and longevity of the LEDs. Easy to install with an M8 mounting thread, the Blade Coral Grow also features a universal power input (100-240VAC) and a 9.8-foot cable for flexible placement. Certified compliant with UL, CE, and RoHS standards, this LED strip offers a reliable and versatile lighting upgrade that supports healthy coral growth and enhances the visual beauty of reef aquariums.
