Twinstar S-line Aquarium Lighting
Twinstar S-Line: Twinstar’s Flagship Model
Looking for the absolute pinnacle in aquarium lighting? The Twinstar S-Line (Supreme) is Twinstar’s flagship, designed for aquascapers who demand nothing but the best. While the E-Line is already impressive, the S-Line takes things even further with higher light intensity, a wider housing for perfect light distribution, and the most advanced color control available.
The difference: E-Line vs. S-Line
Although both series belong to the top tier, the S-Line is the superior step. The main differences lie in the width of the fixture and the customizability of the spectrum. The S-Line is built wider, allowing for more even light distribution across the substrate. In addition, the S-Line allows individual adjustment of color channels via the LightControl Pro, whereas the E-Line operates with a fixed spectrum.
Why choose the Twinstar S-Line V?
The S-Line V utilizes the revolutionary Advanced Spectrum V3.0. This LED technology is up to 30% brighter than previous generations and is fully optimized for what plants truly need for efficient photosynthesis.
Key advantages:
- Spectrum customization: Using the included LightControl Pro, you can independently adjust the white, red, green, and blue channels to create exactly the atmosphere you want.
- Boost mode: For very deep aquariums or extremely demanding plants, activate Boost mode to achieve 20% extra intensity on top of the standard output.
- Titanium coating: The housing features a luxurious titanium coating, giving the light a professional and highly durable finish.
Which aquariums is the S-Line best suited for?
The S-Line is a true powerhouse that performs best in specific scenarios:
- High-tech aquascapes: Ideal when you want full control over plant growth and coloration.
- Deep and wide aquariums: Thanks to the wider unit and high PPFD values, the light easily reaches the substrate of larger aquariums.
- Extreme plant growth: Even the most demanding red plants and carpeting species thrive under the S-Line.

Our tip for the S-Line
The S-Line acts like a true “sun” above your aquarium. Due to its high intensity, a precise fertilization schedule and a stable CO₂ system are essential. Without this balance, plants cannot keep up with the energy output, which may lead to algae issues. Use the 25-day light planner in the app to gently start up your aquarium.
