A great aquascape deserves a clean background, and the DET Background LED Light Screen delivers exactly that. It mounts to the rear glass of your tank and casts an even, glare-free wash of white light that hides cords, equipment and the wall behind the tank, making plants and hardscape stand out the way they do in competition scapes and photography.

It's the affordable way to get the "infinity white" backdrop made famous by the ADA Light Screen. Installation takes seconds using the included hooks, which attach to the back of your tank's rim with no tools or adhesive on the glass.

The screen ships with two gradient films so you can change the whole mood of the tank without changing hardware. The sky-blue film creates a soft daytime gradient, the sunset film gives a warm orange backdrop, or run the panel bare for pure bright white. Brightness is fully adjustable through the included remote, so you can balance the backlight against your main light for everyday viewing or wind it up for photos and filming.

Choosing your size

Match the screen to your tank's rear glass. Sizes correspond to standard aquascaping tank widths:

  • 60 × 36 cm — for 60cm tanks. The most popular aquascaping size.
  • 90 × 45 cm — for 90cm tanks.
  • 120 × 50 cm — for 120cm tanks. The premium large-format option.

Why aquascapers use a light screen

A backlit white background removes shadow and visual clutter, gives the tank a sense of depth, and is the single biggest upgrade for aquascape photography. It's a finishing touch that makes an ordinary scape look professional.
