The AquaIllumination AI Blade Smart LED Strip Coral Grow 21 Inch is a cutting-edge LED lighting solution specifically engineered to optimize coral photosynthesis and robust growth in saltwater reef aquariums. This versatile strip LED offers unparalleled flexibility in mounting, spectrum customization, and integration, making it a foundational light source or an excellent supplement to existing setups. It delivers powerful, balanced blue and white light crucial for vibrant coral health and development. Central to its performance are the exclusive EdgeField™ Optics, which ensure exceptionally even PAR distribution, seamless color mixing, a broad 95-degree spread, and a captivating natural shimmer effect, all while minimizing shadowing. The Coral Grow model features a powerful diode blend per cluster, including 12 Royal Blue, 6 Cool White, and 6 Blue LEDs, providing a spectrum optimized for deep blue to blue range (400-500nm) output. With an IP66 water resistance rating, silent passive cooling, and smart control via the myAI or Mobius apps, this 21.1-inch fixture offers durability and convenience. Multiple mounting options are available, with the low-profile Tank Rest included for this size. This product is ideally suited for reef aquarists who prioritize high-efficiency, customizable lighting to achieve optimal coral growth and coloration. It's perfect for those looking to replicate the broad, even light distribution of traditional T5 fixtures with the advanced control and efficiency of LEDs, either as a primary lighting solution, stacked in parallel for comprehensive coverage, or as supplemental fill lighting to eliminate hot spots. Its robust build quality, smart features, and adaptable design make it an excellent investment for both new and experienced hobbyists aiming for a thriving reef environment.

| Extremely Versatile Mounting, Spectrum, and Sizing Options.. Aquarium Lighting, Your Way! Available in 7 different sizes from 12 to 66 inches Balanced blue and white spectrum optimized for coral photosynthesis Mounting solutions for every tank need Cluster group LED diodes with 95 degree spread EdgeFieldTM Optics with even PAR and smooth color mixing Minimal shadowing and natural shimmer Great alone, stacked in parallel, or as supplemental fill lighting IP66 Water Resistance Passive, noiseless cooling Smart control via myAI or Mobius apps Low profile Tank Rest included or Mounting Clips included Color Your Way This is far from your typical strip LED! The Blade maximizes color and efficiency, incorporating exclusive EdgeFieldTM Optics to deliver even PAR, smooth color mixing, exceptional 95 degree spread, and a natural shimmer effect in your aquarium. Its wide angle and modular cluster LEDs allow light to wrap around high points in your tank to provide a smooth blanket of illumination with minimal shadowing. When you combine 3 or more Blade strips together, the result is shadow elimination and even light distribution comparable to traditional T5 fixtures, but with greater efficiency and at a fraction of the cost! You can also use the Blade with any existing light fixtures as supplemental or fill lighting to enhance light coverage and reduce hotspots. The Coral Grow model brings a powerful and balanced blue and white growth spectrum with output in the deep blue through blue range (400-500nm) to address the photosynthetic needs of corals. Use the Grow for maximum PAR output per foot, the Glow for maximum fluorescence, or mix them together and get both. Peak performance is best achieved in a ratio of 2:1 Grow to Glow, but one of each is perfectly acceptable when less light is needed. Each AI Blade LED Strip includes roughly one light cluster group per foot of fixture length. Tight grouping and balanced diode placement contribute to the incredible balance and shimmer that the Blade platform delivers. The Blade Coral Grow includes the following 24 diodes per cluster group: 12x Royal Blue 6x Cool White 6x Blue Mount Your Way The AI Blade is designed for a myriad of mounting solutions to satisfy any system. Choose from a Tank Rest, Elevated Tank Rest, Hanging Kit, Hybrid Mount, or HMS Adapter Arm to find the perfect mounting solution for your set up. Tank Rest - Included with all Blade lights up to 39", this low-profile mount sits directly on top of your tank and extends up to 4.5 inches on either side of the fixture. Mounting Clips - Included with all Blade lights over 39", these clips are compatible with the AI HMS Single Arm Mount and HMS Hanging Kit rails. Elevated Tank Rest - An attractive and sturdy tank mount for both rimmed or rimless tanks. The Elevated Tank Rest increases light spread and allows for easier access into the aquarium when compared to the standard Tank Rest. Hanging Kit - Made from high-quality brushed aluminum with a black finish, the Hanging Kit provides an elegant solution for suspending your Blade above your aquarium. The Hanging Kit also allows you to mount 3, 4, or 6 light bars in parallel for increased coverage and streamlined aesthetics. Hybrid Mount - A mounting solution designed to combine Blade strips with one or more AquaIllumination Hydra or EcoTech Radion pendant fixtures. The best of all worlds, rolled into one! Custom Mounting - If none of the above mounting options suit your fancy, the Blade also includes M8 mounting threads at each end, enabling you to easily create a custom mount with endless possibilities. Control Your Way The Blade LED can be wirelessly controlled via iOS and Android devices on either the MyAi or the Mobius app. With the app, you can customize your spectrum intensity and set custom schedules for each light, or just select from one of the in-app templates available. Both apps can be downloaded for free on Google Play and the App Store. Each Blade LED also includes onboard controls for cycling through spectrums.
