Most users immediately notice that their aquarium appears clearer and easier to see, almost as if the tank has shifted into true high-definition. Coral edges become more defined, natural textures become visible, and the entire reef looks sharper from every viewing angle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eReal Coral Response\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s2\"\u003eCoral results are often dramatic. Many hobbyists see colonies grow faster, long-term slow growers begin putting on new tissue quickly, frags heal faster, and corals produce colors they had never seen under previous lighting.

It uses a strong blend of blues and violets with a unified white channel to create the deep blue look that many hobbyists enjoy. The whites are balanced to support the overall spectrum without washing out the blues, allowing you to raise all channels evenly and keep that signature blue aesthetic. A UV peak at 405 nm adds clarity and definition to the corals while maintaining the natural deep blue tone of the layout. The Original layout is easy to tune, visually consistent at any intensity, and works well with all coral types.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/2471\/6054\/files\/Meridian_LED_Layout_resized_480x480.png?v=1743537110\" alt=\"\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShallow Reef LED Layout:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Shallow Reef layout is designed to replicate the natural appearance of corals in shallow reef environments. In these areas, the light has a balanced blend of whites, blues, and violets that makes coral color and structure stand out in a natural way. To achieve this, the Shallow Reef layout increases the number of white LEDs and separates the 3.5k warm whites from the 5.5k neutral whites, giving you precise control over the tone and character of the tank. Adjusting these channels lets you match the subtle shifts seen in real shallow reefs without pushing the spectrum toward an overly blue or overly white look. The layout also extends deeper into the UV range with a peak at 390 nm, rounding out a spectrum that works seamlessly with all coral types. With individual control over every major color, the Shallow Reef layout is easy to fine tune and presents your reef exactly the way you prefer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/2471\/6054\/files\/Meridian_14K_LED_Layout_resized_480x480.png?v=1759859619\" alt=\"\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ReefBreeders.com","offers":[{"title":"Original","offer_id":51305336373526,"sku":"M63WPSU","price":1754.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Shallow Reef","offer_id":51305336406294,"sku":"M63-14K","price":1754.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/2471\/6054\/files\/Meridian_63_LEDs.jpg?v=1743443195","url":"https:\/\/reefbreeders.com\/products\/meridian-63-open-box","provider":"ReefBreeders.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
