Are there Any low profile programmable pico/nano LEDs? Without large power supply

[chaostactics]

I have a Fluval V 5 gallon that has the previous gen Current USA programmable reef led. Tbh pretty decent light but I'd like something with more color programing available in the blues.

The one I have used a wall wart (AC/DC) adapter and not a power brick.

I was wondering if there were any other wall wart options out there.

The answer turned out to be the Fluval Marine light.

Red Sea makes an 8” led bar.
I believe it ramps up and down. But I’m not sure if you can play with the temp.

Interesting. We chose to go with the Fluval marine. Very low profile, nice wide spread, and small wall wart instead of desktop power supply.

Can you tell me if you got the Fluval Marine Nano Bluetooth (the square one with the clamp on arm)? If it is, is it 5" x 5"? My tank is a 5g that is 16"L and I want to be sure it provides enough coverage. The depth of my tank is about 8" so I know it's fine for that. Also, how high can you raise it above the tank. Their official video is horrible and doesn't show how high it goes and they had it only two or three inches above the tank. I don't know how they feed the tank with it that close to the surface.

Do we have a name for this light because I have an 8" by 8" Pico and that would be perfect.

I don't know about that light, however I am in love with the Fluval marine series for pico and nano tanks. I highly recommend you take a look at the Fluval Marine Nano 3.0. the light spread is great for having the light low and close to the water for a low profile/clean look, it's got a few different channels for lots of color possibilities, and the app is pretty good.

I changed over the Fluval Marine bar instead of the Nano one that's square. It's a great light for longer nano and pico. You can see it on my build thread.

The mount with the Marine Nano 3.0 is pretty good. The Marine 3.0 is only rim mount. However it pairs great with the Current USA LED mount.

Info on build thread here.

Nano Build - The "high tech" ultra compact Pico build. : Fluval V build (lots of pics)

Another re-scape to make the scape more interesting and to declutter the tank. Stuff is ticked from the scape but overall more room for the clowns to swim before they move over to a bigger display tank. And opens up the flow a bit
