AquaIllumination Blade Smart LED Strip - Coral Glow
The AquaIllumination Blade Coral Glow is a supplemental reef strip light built to make your corals fluoresce and pop. Its heavy royal blue and violet spectrum layers extra actinic color over your primary reef fixture, deepening blues, greens, and reds without changing your growth lighting. Pair it with a full spectrum reef light from our AquaIllumination collection for the best of both color and coral growth.
Cluster grouped LEDs with wide 95 degree EdgeField Optics wrap even PAR and a natural shimmer around your rockwork with minimal shadowing. Run it as accent lighting or combine several Blades for T5 style coverage at a fraction of the energy. Shop more reef gear in our saltwater collection.
Why the Blade Coral Glow
- Fluorescence spectrum: royal blue plus 430nm, 415nm, and 405nm violet/UV for maximum coral color.
- EdgeField Optics: even PAR, smooth color mixing, 95 degree spread, natural shimmer.
- Supplemental or fill: boosts pop next to a primary fixture, or gang several for full coverage.
- IP66 water resistant: built to shrug off splash and salt creep over the tank.
- Silent passive cooling: no fans, no moving parts, no noise.
- App and onboard control: MyAI and Mobius apps plus manual onboard controls.

Which Size Is Right for You?
Match the Blade length to your tank length using the table above. Because the Coral Glow is a color light, most reefers run it as a supplement alongside a primary fixture. AquaIllumination recommends roughly a 1 to 2 ratio of Glow to growth lighting, so one Coral Glow strip pairs well with a full spectrum reef fixture like the Hydra 32 HD Reef or Prime 16 HD Reef. Ganging two or more Blades across a longer tank delivers even, shadow free color.

FAQ
Can the Coral Glow be my only light?

Is it controllable?
Yes. Use the MyAI or Mobius apps and the MXM Wi-Fi module for scheduling and dimming, or the onboard manual controls.
Freshwater or saltwater?
The Coral Glow is built for saltwater reef tanks to enhance coral fluorescence. For planted freshwater tanks, choose the Blade Freshwater instead.
How does it mount?
The 12 to 39 in sizes include a low profile Tank Rest. The 48 to 66 in sizes include two Mounting Clips and are compatible with the Hanging Kit, Hybrid Mount, and HMS Light Mount Kit, sold separately.
Is it water resistant?
Yes, the Blade is rated IP66 against splash and salt creep.
