Red Sea ReefLED 160S – Precision Lighting for Advanced Reef Systems
The Red Sea ReefLED 160S brings larger reef tanks the control, power, and even light spread they require. With REEF-SPEC® lighting and 160 watts of output, this light fixture provides balanced illumination while actively eliminating dark zones or shadowed corners.
Why the Red Sea ReefLED 160S Offers More Than Just Intensity
The Red Sea ReefLED 160S delivers a spectrum that copies natural reef conditions—for biological function and not just design aesthetics. Unlike lights that rely solely on increasing PAR values, this fixture directly targets PUR (Photosynthetically Utilized Radiation), which enables light will reach the wavelengths zooxanthellae actually use inside coral tissue.
Spectrum Highlights:
-
140W of REEF-SPEC Blue (UV, violet, and blue)
-
20W of crisp white light (9,000K)
-
3W of moonlight for realistic night cycles
Red Sea designed the patented stadium-shaped lens to distribute light evenly across a 32" x 32" area. As a result, this LED system delivers consistent intensity across the entire tank without hot zones or low-light gaps. For aquariums up to 7.5 feet in length, two or three fixtures can easily cover the system with smooth, homogenous lighting.
Designed for Deeper Tanks and Wider Setups
This isn’t an all-purpose LED—it’s tailored for reefers running tanks with height, width, or both. Whether it’s a Red Sea Reefer 625 or a 180-gallon custom build, the ReefLED 160S was built to stretch across dimensions without washing out intensity.
-
Mount spacing: up to 30" between units
-
Light fixture dimensions: 6.9 inches tall, 6.1 inches wide, and 2.5 inches tall
-
Suggested use: Larger aquascapes, mixed reef systems, and SPS-dominant coral displays
You'll find this model pairs well with other LED lighting options, though it was designed specifically to match the style and performance expectations of Red Sea systems. It also integrates smoothly with gear featured in our Lighting collection.
Simplified Control Through ReefBeat Integration
Red Sea’s ReefBeat app isn’t a bolt-on afterthought—it’s the core of how the ReefLED 160S operates. The Wi-Fi-enabled system allows for real-time scheduling, spectrum adjustment, and long-term planning.
App Functions:
-
Customize sunrise, sunset, moon phases, and cloud cover
-
Acclimate new corals with gradual light increase
-
Manage multiple devices from one dashboard
-
Receive alerts and performance updates directly
Everything operates through the app—no extra controller boxes or dongles required.
Built with Practical Features for Everyday Maintenance
The ReefLED 160S includes an anti-glare recessed lens and a tilt-sensitive shutoff feature. If the fixture tilts off-level, it shuts itself off for safety. A clip-on light visor is also included, minimizing light spill and keeping your tank the visual focus—not your hardware.
