In the world of reef keeping, light is energy. While LEDs have revolutionized efficiency, many hobbyists find that metal halide reef tank lighting provides a unique, high-intensity output that mimics the sun more accurately than any other light source.
Hybrid Hybrid reef lighting is a unique blend of metal halide high intensity discharge (HID) bulbs and florescent T-5 tubes, in the same fixture. This combination of depth-penetrating, extremely bright halide lighting plus the coral-stimulating properties of T-5 tubes provides a potent light source for SPS and LPS corals.

Reef Brite products are perfectly matched to meet the demands of the discriminating aquarist. The Reef Brite Halide Hybrid features a specially designed aluminum reflector which maximizes light transmission while controlling proper lamp temperature for optimal lamp performance.
