NICREW HyperReef Gen 2 Controller
Take Full Command of Your Reef Lighting
Unlock the full potential of your HyperReef Gen 2 lights with the official Nicrew controller — giving you precise, independent control over every channel so you can dial in the exact spectrum, intensity, and photoperiod your corals need to thrive.
Why Reefers Are Adding This Controller to Their Setup:
- 5 Independent Channels, Stepless Dimming — Control 5 independent light channels with stepless dimming from 0% to 100% on HyperReef Gen 2 fixtures, giving you total precision over your spectrum instead of relying on preset modes. Aquarium Depot
- Two Programming Modes for Every Skill Level — Easy Set Program offers a quick, hassle-free setup to establish your ideal photoperiod, while Pro Set Program lets you create a fully custom lighting effect by adjusting intensity and color across 8 different time points throughout the day — perfect for realistic sunrise-to-sunset simulation.

- Touch Button Control with 2.4" LCD Screen — Clean, intuitive interface makes programming and adjustments simple, no app pairing headaches or connectivity issues required.
- Daisy Chain Multiple Fixtures — Connect multiple HyperReef Gen 2 lights in a daisy chain for seamless, synchronized control from a single controller — ideal for multi-light setups or larger tanks. Aquarium Depot
- Backward Compatible — Also works with HyperReef Gen 1 fixtures (2-channel control, 3.5mm TRRS cable required, sold separately) — supporting up to 5 devices total so upgrading your controller doesn't mean abandoning your existing lights. Aquarium DepoteBay
Best for: Any reef keeper running one or more HyperReef Gen 2 fixtures who wants finer channel control, custom photoperiod programming, or a single point of control across multiple lights.
Note: The controller supports either an all-Gen 1 or all-Gen 2 setup — mixing Gen 1 and Gen 2 fixtures on the same controller simultaneously is not supported.
