A160XE Tuna Blue LED Aquarium Light - Kessil
Goes well with:
Experience the signature shimmer that made Kessil famous. The Kessil A160WE Tuna Blue combines the natural appearance of metal halide lighting with the efficiency and control of modern LEDs, making it an excellent choice for nano and small reef aquariums.
Powered by Kessil’s patented Dense Matrix LED technology, the A160WE blends multiple wavelengths into a single, compact light source for exceptional color mixing, natural shimmer, and even coverage. Unlike traditional multi-cluster LEDs, the Dense Matrix design eliminates distracting color separation while producing realistic light patterns that closely mimic sunlight on a natural reef.
With an adjustable spectrum ranging from crisp 10,000K daylight to deep actinic blue, the A160WE allows you to fine-tune both coral growth and fluorescence independently using Kessil Logic™. This intelligent control system maintains a balanced spectrum throughout the entire adjustment range, ensuring your corals always receive the light they need.
The compact pendant design fits seamlessly over nano and pico reef aquariums while remaining compatible with 0-10V controllers such as the Neptune Apex®, Kessil Spectral Controller, and other aquarium automation systems for advanced lighting schedules.
