Desktop PRO LED Light
Introducing the Desktop PRO LED Light, developed in collaboration with RoamingReef and designed entirely in-house here in the Pacific Northwest. Purpose-built specifically for desktop aquariums, this premium 10W LED delivers professional-level performance in an incredibly compact package.
Unlike traditional puck-style lights, the Desktop PRO features a wide rectangular LED array paired with a built-in diffuser panel for exceptional light spread, smoother color blending, and dramatically reduced shadowing. Whether you're growing high-demand SPS corals, vibrant LPS, soft corals, macroalgae, or planted freshwater aquariums, this light was engineered to provide the coverage and spectrum your aquarium needs.

Fully Adjustable Spectrum
The Desktop PRO features two independently controlled LED channels:
- 8W Blue/UV Reef Channel for coral growth and fluorescence
- 2W Full Spectrum White Channel for natural daylight coloration
Each channel is independently adjustable in 10% increments, allowing you to create anything from a deep-blue reef look to a crisp daylight spectrum.
Built-In Smart Controller
No external controller required. The integrated inline controller includes:
- Independent Blue & White channel control
- 6, 9, or 12-hour built-in timer
- One-touch brightness adjustment
- Memory that saves your previous settings
Simply turn the light on at your desired start time, select your timer, and the light handles the rest.
Wide, Even Light Coverage
Unlike traditional puck lights, the Desktop PRO uses a wide LED array with a built-in diffuser to provide:
- Wider light spread
- Reduced hotspots
- Better color blending
- More even PAR distribution
- Less shadowing throughout the aquarium
The result is healthier coral growth and a more evenly illuminated aquarium.
Future-Ready Design
A waterproof quick-connect connector allows for easy installation and is designed for future controller compatibility and accessory upgrades.
Includes Micro Reef Adapter
Every Desktop PRO LED includes an exclusive adapter bracket for the PNW Custom 40oz Micro Reef, lowering the fixture closer to the aquarium for increased PAR while maintaining excellent coverage.
Micro Reef Controller Compatibility
The Desktop PRO currently uses its own advanced inline controller and is not yet fully compatible with the Micro Reef Controller's lighting functions. A compatibility update is already in development that will allow both controllers to work together. In the meantime, simply connect the light to the Micro Reef Controller with the light output set to Always On, then control brightness, spectrum, and the timer using the Desktop PRO's inline controller.
