The Greatest Aquarium LED show on Earth, this saturday at ReefStock and on Reef Builders
9 Comments
Unless you’ve been living deep inside a piece of Totoka live rock, by now you should be aware that a huge LED lighting demonstration will be taking place at ReefStock this Saturday, March 13th at the Denver Downtown Aquarium. LED lighting has been a dream on the horizon for almost a decade but this weekend we will all see that this exciting and efficient lighting technology has really arrived to the aquarium hobby, with the reefers being first in line to take advantage of the intensity and coloring options that come from using Light Emitting Diodes. Whether you are into the hot rod or the DIY, spotlights, modular or custom LED lighting, with no less than 10 LED light makers in attendance this weekend we should get a good look at the current state of the art in aquarium LED lighting technology. And if you can’t make it because you don’t live in Colorado or neighboring states, fear not because you can bet your reefing budget that the Reef Builders staff will blogging their hearts out on everything LED at ReefStock so that anyone with internet connection can get front row coverage simply by stopping by the blog. In addition to all these LED lights and the first production LIFI Plasma Arc Seashine lights, we can expect a ton of new products to be announced and we can assure you that you will want to read about all that will unfold in Denver this weekend. With so many high tech lights in one place we may not be able to cause the formation of a ripple in the reefing space-time continuum but at the very least this grand show of LED force should be a great coming out party for the lighting technology which will just about push out all others in the coming years. Follow the break for a rundown of all the future players in the aquarium LED lighting world who will be coming to ReefStock and make sure you tune in to Reef Builders this weekend for all the action.
can’t wait! I’ll be in line waiting for the doors to open!

How about Vertex Lumina?

I spoke with Jason at Proline about the Vertex Lumina and unfortunately the light will not be finished in time to be displayed at ReefStock. Kind of the same story with PacificSun but the ReefStock participants include all of the major US-based LED light companies that I can think of.

Looking forward to RB coverage this weekend
Congrats Jake on the Coral magazine article, maybe I’ll see you at Aquatek some time soon. Enjoyed seeing the rare “plant frags.”

All right Jake, for all of us that can’t fly in for the show, we are relying on you. I hope Ryan has purchased a droid phone for you so you can take videos and upload them right to youtube and then blog away. What ever method you have, we’ll need some serious videos!
BTW, I just got my new Coral issue. Nice read! I’m glad that you’ve started to submit articles to their publication now that ReefLife has defunk’d.
Later
