Another day, another LED light. This light made by Kotobuki is being released in Japan and offers a slim and compact unit that actually looks quite slick. The Kotobuki LED light is rated at only 3 watts so its best for nano, or ideally a pico aquarium and you could easily pick one up for around $33 (¥2,980) if you live in Japan. The only draw back with this LED light stick is the tank needs to be rimless, or without that pesky black frame that is common to add to aquariums in the United States. Few US manufacturers have figured out that frameless looks better, something that the rest of the world has already figured out.

Sorry to be off topic, but why does rimless “look better”? I hate it. It looks unfinished. ESPECIALLY nwhen there are cords hanging about. In the tank (as shown above)- I agree, clean. But unless it has a closed loop installed or has very well hidden plumbing and cords (which is rarely done IMO), rimless looks stupid. Maybe I just ahvent seen the pretty ones yet.
@Jeremy
This comment is better than most of the replies we get from Frame-Loving Aquarium Companies PR, actually. More lively. You should consider a job there. You sound like a great future company man.
Rimless… surely there can be no such thing, braceless yes, but rimless? I see a rim on that tank…
@ryan, your comment was even funnier than Jeremy’s, ROTF
I dunno, I really don’t see any cords hanging over the edge of this, all the wiring is in the frame work and the cords are going down the back.
And I don’t think it’s that the rest of the world figured out the rimless/frameless looked better, it’s just that it costs a lot more in increase pane size and manufacturers over here decided they’d rather have a lower cost tank that aims everyone.
But back to the product… at 3 watts, that’s not good for much of anything except literally lighting the tank. Maybe a nice NP coral pico tank?
Thats cause theres nothing in the tank but water and sand. Put any *living* in their and youll need circulation/filtration/heating. Look like an overpriced bedpan. Hows that, Ryan?
Hey Jake,
Any info on where I can purchase one? I’m in the US (NY) but figured maybe somewhere online?
