## What is ReefBreeders?

The ReefBreeders app offers an intuitive way to control your Meridian, Meridian Edge Wireless, and Photon V2 Pro lights. Designed for ease of use, this app comes with a variety of preset lighting programs and also gives you the freedom to create custom lighting schedules that suit your specific needs. Thanks to its cloud-based programming, you can adjust and control your lights from any location with an internet connection.

This app provides precise control over your aquarium's lighting, enabling you to program each light individually or in groups. Effortlessly replicate natural lighting conditions like sunrise, sunset, and moonlight in your aquarium. Create and save multiple schedules with ease, and give each light a unique name to easily keep tabs on them.

For optimal use of the ReefBreeders app, you'll need a compatible light such as a Meridian, Meridian Edge (Wireless), or a Photon V2 Pro. Ensure you have a wireless router with a 2.4GHz network and an internet connection.

### 5/5 — Best app for reef lights

*2026-07-11*

ReefBreeders added loads of new free features and thoughtful design changes with their new 2.0 update. The premium options look awesome- I like the idea of being able to directly support new features that no other lights have. They keep adding to the free side of the app too, so I don’t get what the other reviews are saying. Just don’t buy it if you don’t feel like those add ons are worth it?

### 1/5 — Paid Subscription for $1500.00 Lights??

*2026-07-09*

All features except bare minimum are paywalled. For a light this expensive an in app subscription model is pretty scummy. I hope they change this.

### 1/5 — Transfert impossible

*2025-11-28, version 1.1.3*

Impossible de transférer ma rampe led photon, déjà qu’il y avait des problème sur Reef nexus , la ont nous transfert sur une application qui ne fonctionne pas … bravo au développeur, vous êtes des génies (ironique)

### 4/5 — Très bon éclairage à usage simple

*2025-09-24, version 1.1.3*

Des rampes LED à l’éclairage très réussi pour faire grandir coraux et toute la vie marine. 

L’application est simple à faire fonctionner et le partage des modes d’éclairage d’utilisateurs du monde entier bienvenu

### 1/5 — Fuir cette marque !

*2025-02-14, version 1.1.1*

Nouvelle version 1.1.1 Toujours aussi pourrie, l'éclairage nocturne est toujours HS, le firmware est moisi.
L'application toujours pleine de bugs. Comment j'ai pu acheter ça... A ce prix là, dirigez vous vers les leaders du secteur ou du chinois moins cher mais qui fonctionne.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2024-05-25*

This company helped me out tremendously! This app and lights that go with it are most definitely next level. Thank you Logan! I have photon v1 and have upgraded them with the upgrade kit now I’m able to use this app with even older light! Woot :p

### 1/5 — Not ready for prime time

*2024-04-28*

After numerous attempts to connect it to the lights that have been running flawlessly for a year under the old app it still doesn’t work.  Contacted support who is still working with me, but have wasted a day and counting now being a beta tester.  Only have 30 days to convert, but I’d wait a bit longer if you haven’t attempted yet.  Guessing there’ll be some updates to resolve the problems us early adapters are experiencing.
