Reef Brite 30" White XHO LED Strip Light

The Reef Brite XHO series occupies a specific niche: high LED density at a price point that makes modular builds feasible. At 12 LEDs per foot—double the density of Reef Brite's own Tech series—the XHO delivers meaningfully more PAR and is appropriate as a primary light source over shallow to mid-depth reef systems, not just a supplement. The 30" White Daylight variant is tuned for broad-spectrum white output, making it useful wherever you need to reinforce the white and daylight portions of your spectrum.

One of the more practical aspects of the XHO series is its compatibility with ATI T5 fixtures. The mounting brackets included with each bar slide onto ATI end plates without additional hardware, allowing reef keepers to add LED intensity to an existing T5 system in a matter of minutes. For those building from scratch, Reef Brite's separately available mounting legs and hanging brackets allow up to five XHO bars to be grouped into a custom fixture sized to the tank.

The White Daylight color profile is best suited to reef tanks where a separate blue or actinic channel is already handled by another light source, or for freshwater systems that simply need clean, high-output white illumination. It is not a full-spectrum all-in-one bar—pair it with a blue or actinic source if you want coral coloration pop without a separate fixture.

Each bar ships with a power supply and mounts included. The power cord exceeds six feet, which provides reasonable flexibility in positioning relative to a controller or outlet strip. If you are running multiple bars across a larger system, plan mounting hardware purchases accordingly, as legs and hanging brackets are sold separately.
