Ideal as a supplemental source of fluorescence that can be added to a Blade Grow or supplement your current lighting to find your “just right,” perfect combination.
Glow Spectrum
The Blade Glow is uncompromising in a mission to fluoresce coral. Spectral peaks in the lower range of the blue and upper range of the UV spectrum that stimulate coral fluorescence peaks and bring out the otherworldly colors that make an aquarium glow.

The AI Blade™ Glow utilizes the latest LED technology from leading manufacturers, arranged to provide the best performance.
- 12 – Royal Blue
- 6 – 430nm
- 3 – 415nm

EdgeField™ Optics
Optics are one of the most important components of an advanced lighting system. Edgefield™ technology incorporated in the Blade delivers even PAR, smooth color mixing and exceptional spread. Edgefield optics, designed exclusively for the Blade, provide an incredible, 95 degree spread while achieving unmatched light mixing along the length of the blade. The specular exit surface presents a crisp and natural shimmer in your aquarium.
Bright-Sized
The Blade Coral Grow, Blade Coral Glow and Blade Freshwater are available in 7 different sizes. Regardless of tank size or application, Blade has you covered.
Tank Rest Included
For Blades sized up to 39.1 inches the Low Profile Tank Rest is included. The tank rest extends up to 4.5 inches on either side of the blade (for a total of 9 inches).
Mounting Clips Included
For Blades over 39.1 inches Blade Mounting Clips are included. These clips are compatible with the AI HMS Single-Arm and HMS Hanging Kit rails. Different application? No problem, the Blade has many other mounting options available or use the clips with your custom mount.
Water Resistant
Blade is not only versatile but built to last in the harsh-environment of marine aquariums. Blade meets IP66 standards which indicate the highest protection against particles and a high level of protection against water.
Build Your Solution
Blade Coral Grow is designed for maximum PAR efficiency and Blade Coral Glow is designed for maximum fluorescence. Mix them together and get the best of both. Peak performance is best achieved in a ratio of 2:1 Grow to Glow, but one of each is perfectly acceptable when less light is needed.
The beauty of Blade is its versatility. Used alone the Blade Coral Grow provides an excellent source of tuned light for your marine aquarium. Attractive and powerful, an adjustable but easy spectrum ensures great coral growth. Edgefield Optics delivers well mixed color and super even spread while preserving the caustics that make your tank sparkle.
Love the fill of a large fixture and the vibrance of a pendant? Embrace full spectrum for daytime but want to see a glowing sunset? Have great lights already but want to fill in some gaps or pop fluorescence? Blade has you covered. Easily usable with your existing Radion or Hydra fixtures and so easily mountable they will work with many others, go ahead, customize your aquarium lighting your way!
Silent Running
The Blade incorporates a highly efficient heat sink design. Passive cooling means no fan and no air movement or fan noise. This makes the Blade ideal for lighting aquariums in living spaces where less noise is a big plus.
