IceCap 45.2" Blue LED
Moonlight Retro Kit
The LED tubes have the same look of a standard T5 tube, but they are
powered by a low voltage transformer, not a fluorescent ballast. The T5
form provides a very even spread of the light over the entire aquarium.
Encasing the LED's inside a T5-style tube protects them and their
circuit boards from the harsh, salty, humid environment that is your
normal saltwater aquarium.
The
IceCap LED arrays also have an aluminum heat sink on the backside of
the tube to dissipate what little heat they generate. These two unique
features to their LED arrays protect them from the elements (salt,
humidity, and heat) that destroyed other brands of LED’s.
LED’s boast low energy consumption and a long life span, but Icecap
knows the reason you'll want them is what they will do to the
appearance of the corals. They are designed to excite the green
fluorescing proteins in corals.
They
particularly bring out yellows, oranges, reds, and greens. If you think
your corals look good under actinics, you haven't seen anything yet!
Mushrooms, zoanthids, Ricordea, and most any fleshly large polyp stony
corals look amazing under the LED's.
This immediate and stunning
glow is guaranteed to wow anyone who views your tank during the
“twilight” hours and they will continue to cause fluorescence when all
the lights are on.
The LED retrofits ship with mounting clips to secure the LED tubes to a canopy, commercial hood or existing fixture.
The weight should not be an issue because the 2-foot unit is only 4 oz.
Power connection to the LED array is a power tail with a quick connect to a low voltage power supply, no hand wiring required.
