RedSea ReefLED 160S
Red Sea’s ReefLED series is the result of years of research into the lighting needs of corals in artificial environments. The ReefLED 160S combines 160W of REEF-SPEC & Reef-Safe LED light with a patent-pending stadium-shaped lens, creating a beautiful, homogeneous spread throughout an aquarium of 80cm / 32” in all three directions. Multiple units can be mounted 75 cm / 30″ apart while still guaranteeing a visual uniformity of light across the length of the entire aquarium. Only two units are required for a 150cm / 6″ long tank, or three units for a 225cm / 7.5″ long tank. The 160S is therefore the smart choice for bigger tanks.
At the heart of the unit is a single, compact LED array, providing 160W of REEF-SPEC & Reef-Safe LED light. It includes 140W of multi-wavelength light designed to support coral growth and coloration, ensuring optimal conditions for reef ecosystems.

Ian Ferguson –
Installed the ReefLED 160S in my 150cm tank and noticed immediate improvement in coral coloration. The light is even across the entire tank, and my polyps are more active than before. Easy to mount and fits well with the existing setup.
Jacob Blake –
After switching from a traditional LED, the reef growth has improved significantly. The stadium lens gives a natural, uniform light that doesn’t create shadows. Works perfectly with my large tank setup.
Carol Rutherford –
The light output is strong and consistent. I used two units for my 150cm tank and it covers the entire depth. A bit on the expensive side, but the performance justifies the cost.
Michael Morgan –
My tank has a mix of soft and hard corals, and the 160S provides balanced lighting. The color accuracy is excellent, and the corals have grown more vibrant over the past few months.
