Coral Reef Sunrise Sunset Aqua LED Aquarium Light

Do corals need purple light?

Corals benefit from purple light as part of their lighting requirements. Purple light, often in the form of LEDs that emit light in the violet spectrum, is essential for coral photosynthesis. Coral tissues contain pigments, such as chlorophyll and other photopigments, which absorb light at different wavelengths. Purple light helps activate these pigments, facilitating the photosynthetic process and supporting the growth and health of corals in a reef aquarium. Providing a spectrum that includes purple light contributes to a well-balanced lighting environment for coral reefs.

This marine light has six colors: white, deep blue, light blue, purple, red, and green, with each color having its own circuit. You can independently adjust the brightness of the purple light and customize the light mode and brightness according to your needs or the type of coral you are cultivating. The light offers four modes, simulating sunrise and sunset, effectively promoting coral growth and coloration.
