State-of-the-art Shimmer and Spread.

  • Proven Spectrum for Lush Plant Growth
  • EdgeField Optics for Wide, Even Coverage
  • Solar Ring Enhances Shimmer & Depth
  • Dedicated Moonlight for Natural Nocturnal Viewing
  • Smart Control via Mobius App or Apex MXM
  • Flexible Mounting Options for Precise Positioning

 

The Hydra Edge’s ultra-sleek design is as discreet above your aquarium as its light is stunning below, bringing out the best in your tank and its inhabitants. Effortless to mount, easy to clean, and simple to use, the Hydra Edge operates whisper-quiet, thanks to its advanced fan and custom heat sink design.

Engineered for planted aquariums, its proven freshwater spectrum and EdgeField Optics ensure optimal PAR distribution for even the most demanding plant species, promoting dense growth, vibrant coloration, and healthy photosynthesis. Perfect for high-tech tanks, especially those running CO2 systems, the Hydra Edge provides the precision and power needed to cultivate a thriving underwater ecosystem.

 

Lighting Technology & Performance

EdgeField Optics

Optics play a crucial role in any advanced lighting system, and Edgefield technology in the Hydra Edge takes this to the next level. It delivers even PAR, seamless color mixing, and exceptional light spread.

Edgefield optics provide an impressive 100-degree spread, ensuring optimal light mixing throughout your entire aquarium. The specular exit surface produces a clean, natural shimmer, enhancing the visual appeal of your underwater world.

Perfect Spectrum

The Hydra Edge freshwater spectrum is designed specifically to enhance the greens and natural hues in freshwater aquariums, promoting healthy plant growth and a vibrant underwater environment.

Solar Ring

Take control of shimmer! The Solar Ring redefines aquatic lighting, offering customizable sparkle and dynamic shimmer that bring your aquarium to life. With individual channel control, you can adjust the intensity to achieve the perfect balance of shimmer and steady illumination.

HyperDrive Efficiency

A core feature of AI lighting, HyperDrive technology is engineered to optimize both efficiency and flexibility. By transferring unused power from one LED channel to another, it ensures that every watt of available energy is used effectively. This allows you to fine-tune your spectrum with greater precision, tailoring the lighting to your specific needs while maintaining consistent performance across all channels. HyperDrive offers dynamic control, providing enhanced flexibility to adjust color and intensity to suit your aquarium’s unique requirements—all without sacrificing power.

Dedicated Moonlight

Just because your aquarium lights are off doesn’t mean there’s nothing to see! A dedicated moonlight channel simulates natural lunar color and intensity allowing you to enjoy your tank inhabitants' nocturnal activities.

Simple Built-in Control

All AI devices include smart control standard. Download the Mobius or MyAI app on any iOS or Android device to easily set up or program your AI equipment. The Hydra Edge is also compatible with the Neptune Systems MXM module for those Apex users that would like to control their light via Apex Fusion.

Available Mounting Options

The Hydra Edge’s advanced mounting system gives you the freedom to tilt and aim the light exactly where it’s needed. Easily direct illumination for optimal tank coverage, minimize light spillage, and eliminate glare for a perfectly tailored viewing experience. (Mounting options are sold separately)

  • Mounting Bracket: Rear and top mount options which enable you to secure the Hydra Edge to the HMS Single Arm Kit or HMS Rail, providing the flexibility to angle your lights for ideal coverage in your aquarium.
  • Hanging Kit: The Hydra Edge hanging kit offers a sleek and sophisticated solution for suspending your light above your tank.

I have a 48 in tank so I will need 2 but how do I mount them?
Question by: Martin DeLessio on Nov 4, 2025, 5:00 PM
Hi Martin,

You can mount these on our HMS Single Arms with a C-bracket, or you could mount them via an HMS Dual-Arm setup with a Track, or with the HMS hanging kit! If you would like to ask more about this, feel free to reach out to Aquailluminations customer support team!

Hello
What is the light spread for this light fixture? I have a 48” tank and want to know how many I would need.
Thank you.

On a 48" tank you will need two of these lights for full coverage.
