The nano fanatics at Innovative Marine are bacxk with their pre-MACNA product announcements with one more addition to their Auqa Gadget lineup. The MagnaFuge LED light fixture is a refugium light for the all-in-one Nuvo aquariums. It is mounted straight to the back of the tank via neodymium magnets, and after a little peeling off of the black film, lights up the rear chambers of the tank so that advantageous algae like Chaetomorpha can be grown. It’s not completely different from other refugium lights available for AIO nano tanks, but its magnet mounts and powerful LEDs make it the best in the competition and stand out of the rest.
One of the major benefits of the MagnaFuge, besides giving you a flourishing refugium with light, is the fact that it sits behind the tank, out of view. Lights mounted above a back chamber refugium would be far too disturbing, particularly if the tank is in your bedroom and keeps you from getting to sleep in a dark room. This light is all about giving you the best lighting for your aquarium along with taking care of your comforts.
In terms of firepower, this low wattage and small stature fixture makes the most of its function by using a total of six 1 watt LEDs and 120 degree optics. The output is around the 6500K spectrum, which is definitely a good color for growing algae. The retail price for the MagnaFuge is set at $99, and we’ll be getting plenty of one on one time with it at MACNA next week.

Versatile LED Fuge Lighting
Enjoy the benefits of natural filtration for your AIO (All-In-One) Aquarium with the versatile MagnaFuge LED. Unlike traditional fuge lighting, the low voltage MagnaFuge utilizes dedicated rare earth neodymium magnets to mount vertically or horizontally behind your AIO, and remains discreetly out of view. Designed for maximum macro algae growth, the MagnaFuge distributes 6500K spectrum evenly with 120 degree optics, and delivers an amazing 120 lumens per watt. Creating a refugium aids in the export of unwanted nutrients such as phosphates and nitrates, while stabilizing pH and oxygen levels throughout the day. They also provide a natural food source for your aquarium inhabitants, to create a true thriving mini-ecosystem.
