The Reef Brite XHO-K26 is an LED add-on kit designed to seamlessly upgrade existing AquaIllumination Hydra 26 and HD 32 fixtures. This kit enhances your current lighting system by increasing overall intensity, PAR values, and spectral coverage. It is specifically engineered to boost coral coloration and fluorescence, creating a vibrant "pop" while improving light spread to eliminate shadowing and dead spots within your reef aquarium.

This comprehensive kit includes two 11.125-inch Blue Actinic XHO LED strips, which feature a combined total of sixteen 3-watt LEDs in the critical blue and violet spectrum. Also included are the necessary XHO-B30 mounting brackets for AI's HMS mounts or hanging kits, a 2-way connector, and a dedicated power supply. The XHO strips are fully dimmable and can be integrated into advanced control systems like Neptune Systems APEX controllers or Reef Brite's own Wireless Bluetooth LE controller, though the required interfaces are sold separately.

This add-on kit is the perfect solution for reef hobbyists who are satisfied with their AI Hydra fixture but desire supplemental actinic lighting for superior coral health and aesthetics. It is ideal for aquarists looking to maximize coral growth and achieve a more complete, professional-looking light spectrum without the expense of replacing their entire primary lighting fixture. If you want to unlock the full potential of your corals' colors and fill in lighting gaps, this kit provides a targeted and effective upgrade.
