Aqua Illumination Blade Freshwater LED - 12 Inch
Overview of Aqua Illumination Blade Freshwater LED - 12 Inch
The Aqua Illumination Blade Freshwater LED - 12 Inch is a compact smart aquarium strip light designed for planted aquariums, aquascapes, nano freshwater displays, and clean low-profile lighting installations. Built with AquaIllumination's EdgeField Optics, a freshwater-specific spectrum, wireless app control, IP66 water resistance, and silent passive cooling, this fixture provides smooth natural-looking illumination in a sleek linear format.
The 12.1 in. Blade Freshwater model is ideal for smaller planted aquariums, desktop tanks, aquascaping cubes, shallow displays, and focused freshwater lighting zones. Its broad optical spread and blended LED output help present plants, fish, hardscape, and substrate with a natural appearance while giving users precise control over intensity, schedule, and daily lighting behaviour through Mobius or myAI.
Aqua Illumination Blade Freshwater LED - 12 Inch Features
- Freshwater-specific spectrum: Designed for planted aquariums and freshwater displays where natural plant, fish, and hardscape presentation are important.
- EdgeField Optics: Provides broad coverage, smooth colour blending, and even illumination across the aquarium.
- 95 degree optical spread: Wide-angle output helps reduce harsh shadowing and provides a cleaner blanket of light across aquascapes.
- Compact 12.1 in. body: Ideal for nano planted tanks, desktop aquariums, small aquascapes, and focused lighting zones.
- Natural colour rendering: Freshwater LED mix supports a clean viewing appearance for plants, fish, wood, stone, and substrate.
- Silent passive cooling: Fanless heat sink design keeps operation quiet and avoids fan maintenance.
- IP66 water resistance: Built with strong protection against water exposure and particles in aquarium environments.
- Wireless app control: Compatible with Mobius and myAI for intensity, schedule, and lighting profile programming.
- Neptune Apex capable: Compatible with Neptune Fusion when used with a compatible Apex system and MXM module.
- Low-profile Tank Rest included: Included Tank Rest provides simple direct-on-tank mounting and can extend up to 4.5 in. on either side.
- Minimal visual footprint: Slim linear design keeps attention on the aquascape rather than the fixture.
- Expandable Blade platform: Can be used alone on suitable tanks or combined with additional Blade fixtures for wider or higher-output coverage.
