ReeFi Ares Bar

ReeFi is pleased to announce the introduction of the ReeFi Ares Bar, featuring two industry‑first innovations for reef aquariums: EML™ (Expandable Modular Lengths) and ReeFuser™ (programmable reef light diffuser). This premium LED bar is engineered for both supplemental and standalone use, delivering ReeFi’s signature spectrum quality, high PAR performance, and uniform illumination across extended tank lengths.

The Ares Bar represents the linear embodiment of ReeFi’s design philosophy, enhanced by groundbreaking new technologies:

  • ReeFuser™ — Programmable Electronic Diffuser
    The first electronically controlled light diffuser in the reef aquarium industry, designed to significantly reduce harsh coral shadowing and improve overall light distribution.
  • EML™ — Expandable Modular Lengths
    A versatile modular system enabling compatibility with a wide range of aquarium sizes. Each module measures 11.93 inches (303 mm), allowing expansion up to 11.9 ft (3.6 m) for frag tanks, shallow tanks, or supplemental use alongside primary fixtures.
  • 36 High‑Efficiency LEDs
    Engineered to deliver high PAR density suitable for SPS, LPS, and soft coral environments.
  • Optimized Reef Spectrum
    A carefully balanced blend of light blue, royal blue, violet, actinic, and UV wavelengths for coral fluorescence, complemented by lime, amber, warm and cool whites channels to support coral growth and enhance fish coloration.
  • Nine Individually Adjustable Color Channels
    Provides comprehensive customization without concern for selecting the “wrong” color configuration at purchase, plus the ability to change color spectrum throughout the day to mimic nature.
  • Slim, Passively Cooled Aluminum Housing
    Supports up to 40 W in fanless mode, with optional active cooling enabling output up to 72 W per module.
  • 90° ReeFlectors
    Designed for focused, even, penetrating coverage with no side glare when the ReeFuser is disabled.
  • ReeFi Web App Integration
    Fully compatible with the ReeFi Duo and Uno series, offering seasonal lighting transitions and GPS‑based lunar cycle simulation, including real‑time moonrise and moonset.
  • IP65 Rating
    Ensures reliable performance when installed according to specifications.
  • 80/20 T-slot Compatible Mounts
    Slide into 2020 or 2040 Aluminum Extrusions.
  • 3 Years Warranty
