Edgefield optics, designed exclusively for the Blade, provide an incredible, 95 degree spread while achieving unmatched light mixing along the length of the blade. The specular exit surface presents a crisp and natural shimmer in your aquarium.

Mounting Included

The Blade Refugium includes the Low Profile Tank Rest. The tank rest extends up to 4.5 inches on either side of the blade (for a total of 9 inches). Different application? No problem, the Blade has many other mounting options available.
