Orphek LED Lighting for Reef Tanks

Orphek Power Reef Aquarium LED Lighting System

Here’s a very interesting LED light fixture that I came across on Direct Aquarium’s website. The Power Reef LED light fixtures from Orphek have been specifically designed for use over reef aquariums containing stony corals. The manufacturer even claims the PAR (photosynthetically active radiation) and PUR (photosynthetically usable radiation) levels are equivalent to that put out by metal halides and other LED lighting systems. In addition to this, the fixture is made of acrylic and coated aluminum that is supposed to be resistant to the corrosive saltwater. All these claims aside, the one thing that really peaked my interest was the built-in timer that allows for full daytime and nighttime lighting simulation. Orphek’s description leads the reader to believe that the timer controls either the intensity of the fixture by turning on and off specific LEDs in the array. If this is the case, it’s certainly a nice feature to have. Regardless of the companies claims, one thing can be certain…the corals in their Photo Gallery look stunning under their LED light fixtures.
