D-D AI Blade Coral Growth 12″ / 30 cm – (20 W)
Blade Coral Growth
The Blade Grow packs a powerful punch in a sleek design. With a unique LED mix, it optimizes the spectral peaks essential for coral photosynthesis. You can use it on its own or combine it with the Blade Glow to create a color setup that suits your aquarium needs.

Spectrum
This light provides a balanced mix of blue and white diodes that effectively cater to the photosynthetic requirements of coral. The Blade Grow emits light primarily in the deep blue to blue range of the spectrum (400-500 nm), which is known to be highly beneficial for marine life.

LEDs
The AI Blade features a cluster group configuration. Each Blade size contains approximately one cluster group per foot. The tight grouping and balanced placement of the diodes contribute to the remarkable balance and shimmer that the Blade platform provides. The Blade Coral Grow consists of 24 diodes per cluster group:
- 12 – Royal Blue
- 6 – Cool White
- 6 – Blue
EdgeField™ Optics
Optics are crucial in an advanced lighting system. The Edgefield™ technology used in the Blade ensures even PAR, smooth color mixing, and exceptional spread. With a remarkable 95-degree spread, Edgefield optics, designed specifically for the Blade, deliver a beautiful and natural shimmer in your aquarium.
Tank Rest Included
For Blades measuring up to 39.1 inches, a Low Profile Tank Rest is included. This tank rest extends up to 4.5 inches on either side of the blade, providing a total of 9 inches of support.
Mounting Clips Included
For Blades longer than 39.1 inches, Blade Mounting Clips are provided. These clips are compatible with the AI HMS Single-Arm and HMS Hanging Kit rails. If you need a different application, no problem! The Blade offers various mounting options, or you can use the clips with your custom mount.
Water Resistant
The Blade is not only adaptable but also built to endure the challenging environment of marine aquariums. It meets IP66 standards, ensuring the highest protection against particles and significant defense against water.
