AquaIllumination Prime 16 Fuge LED Refugium Light - Black

Grow more macroalgae, export more nutrients. The AquaIllumination Prime 16 Fuge is a compact, high-output HD LED built specifically to light a refugium. Its custom full-spectrum output, heavy on the deep reds and warm tones that macroalgae love, drives fast Chaetomorpha (chaeto) growth so your refugium pulls nitrate and phosphate out of the water and keeps your display tank cleaner and more stable. Control it wirelessly from the free Mobius or MyAI app, with completely silent passive cooling in your sump. Pair it with the rest of our saltwater and reef gear.

Why the Prime 16 Fuge

• Custom refugium spectrum tuned to grow Chaetomorpha and other macroalgae
• 46 W of output from a compact HD LED, plenty for most refugiums and sumps
• Strong nutrient export: healthy macroalgae growth pulls nitrate and phosphate from your water
• Wireless control and scheduling through the free Mobius or MyAI app
• Silent, fanless passive cooling for a quiet sump area
• Compact footprint that fits most sump and refugium setups

How a refugium light helps your reef

A refugium grows macroalgae like chaeto in your sump. Under the right light, that macroalgae consumes the same nitrate and phosphate that would otherwise fuel nuisance algae in your display tank. The Prime 16 Fuge delivers the spectrum and intensity chaeto needs to grow quickly, giving you natural nutrient export, extra habitat for copepods, and a more stable, balanced reef.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a fuge light do? It provides the spectrum macroalgae need to grow in a refugium, which exports nitrate and phosphate and helps starve nuisance algae in your display.

How do I control it? Wirelessly through the free Mobius or MyAI app, where you set intensity and custom schedules.

Can I use it on freshwater? It is built for refugiums, most common in reef and marine sumps, but the growth spectrum also suits planted and macroalgae setups.

Does it come with a mount? It includes the light and power adapter; choose an AquaIllumination mount (Flex Arm, Tank Mount, or Hanging Kit) separately to suit your setup.
