Aqua Illumination AI Blade® Glow – Fluorescence Enhancement LED Lighting for Reef Aquariums
The AI Blade® Glow will make your reef tank glow and help your corals truly “pop.” Designed with a specialized LED blend that maximizes spectral peaks, the Blade Glow enhances coral fluorescence by stimulating the wavelengths that bring out their most vibrant and supernatural colors.
It is ideal as a supplemental fluorescence light that can be added to a Blade® Grow or used to complement your existing lighting system, helping you find the perfect balance of color and visual impact.
Glow Spectrum
The Blade Glow is uncompromising in its mission to make corals fluoresce. It features strong spectral peaks in the lower blue range and the upper UV spectrum, which stimulate coral fluorescence and enhance the vivid, glowing colors that make reef aquariums shine.
LEDs per Cluster
The AI Blade™ Glow uses the latest LED technology from leading manufacturers, arranged in clusters to deliver outstanding performance.
- 12 – Royal Blue
- 6 – 430 nm
- 3 – 415 nm
- 3 – 405 nm
Advanced EdgeField™ Optics
Optics are one of the most important components of an advanced lighting system. The EdgeField™ technology built into the Blade delivers uniform PAR, smooth color blending, and exceptional light distribution.
Designed exclusively for the Blade platform, the EdgeField optics provide an impressive 95-degree light spread while achieving unmatched color mixing along the entire length of the blade. The specular output surface creates a crisp, natural shimmer in your aquarium.
Blade® Grow – Powerful Coral Growth Lighting
The Blade® Grow delivers immense power in a slim and elegant form factor. It features a specialized LED blend that maximizes the spectral peaks required for coral photosynthesis. Use it on its own or combine it with the Blade® Glow to create the perfect balance of growth-focused lighting and stunning fluorescence.
Grow Spectrum
A balanced mix of blue and white diodes efficiently meets the photosynthetic needs of corals. The Blade Grow provides output across the deep blue to blue spectrum (400–500 nm), a proven and highly effective range for marine reef lighting.
LED Configuration – Blade® Grow
The AI Blade platform uses a clustered LED layout, with approximately one cluster group per foot of blade length. Compact grouping and balanced diode placement contribute to the exceptional brightness and uniformity the Blade system is known for.
Each Blade® Grow cluster includes:
- 12 – Royal Blue
- 6 – Cool White
- 6 – Blue
EdgeField™ Optics – Grow Edition
Just like the Blade Glow, the Blade Grow features EdgeField™ optics that provide uniform PAR, smooth color blending, and exceptional coverage. The 95-degree light spread ensures consistent illumination and a natural shimmer effect across the entire aquarium.
