Freshwater Spectrum

The Blade Freshwater is designed to produce a broad, balanced spectrum suitable for both aquarium viewing and aquatic plant growth.

Its combination of cool white, warm white, blue and red LEDs gives you considerable flexibility when adjusting the overall appearance of the aquarium. You can create a warmer natural tone, a crisp daylight appearance or fine-tune the spectrum to highlight specific fish and plant colours.

LED Configuration

Each LED cluster contains 24 diodes:

The balanced diode arrangement helps create even colour blending across the aquarium while providing the spectrum required for freshwater plants.
