Spectrum
A perfect blend of 6500K Cool White, Crimson Full Spectrum, 660nm Deep Red, 395nm UVA, 450nm Royal Blue, 505nm Green, 525nm Cyan and 840nm Near Infra Red leds.
Near Infra Red is not commonly used in aquarium lighting but we've included it because it's part of the full spectrum and there are many fish species that can see and use this light.
This lamp produces a beautiful and natural full spectrum for planted tanks with an aesthetically pleasing 5900K colour temp with aall colour channels at the same brightness
Beam Angles

The beam angle refers to how narrow or wide the light beam will be.
A narrow beam angle like 15 will focus light to a smaller area and deliver higher PAR. A wide beam angle like 80 will spread light on a wider area and the PAR will be lower
than 15 or 24.
The diagram shows the different beam angles and also explains that in the centre directly below the light you'll get 100% intensity, at the edge of the beam angle you'll get 50% and further away you'll get spill light at around 10%.

PPFD/PAR
Brightness is the measure of how bright lights are to the human eye, PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density) often referred to as PAR is the measure of how effective
light is to the inhabitants under water and varies according to how deep the water is, decreasing PAR as the water gets deeper.
- This is a high light system and is fully dimmable so you can run it at lower than full capacity if you don't need that much light.
- PPFD readings of 50 umol/m2/s or over at the substrate is considered high light and will support sustainable growth in difficult to grow and light demanding plants.
