Refugium lighting.
 

Can anyone recommend something for over a small refugium? Preferably LEDs.
Also, would 2 mp10s be sufficient flow for a 75g? With a 1200gph return pump. I have 2 korila 1400s right now and I had to shut one off because it seems to be way too much.

I use this now, works great!

Yupp! Best selling fuge lights we have! Small, bright and perfect 6500K to grow cheato.

How much is something like that? I'm about to buy ANOTHER CF bulb for mine. Ugh.

Reef Supplies have them listed at $74.99 on thier site.

I'm using a TMC AquaRay 500HD. It is great so far. It costs ~$110. It has 4 Cree XPE whites, and 1 Cree XPE blue.

Anyone want to do a reef supplies group buy in e-town?

I wouldn't mind one of those as well

Quite possible. My bulb is $30. Lol.

Keep me in the loop, or start a thread?

Perfect! Just what I was looking for. Way cheaper than I expected too.
Sooo, group buy? :)

Cut by hydrolite their just up the road from red coral. They should have exactly what you need and then some.

I use a cheep clamp on fixture that takes a standard bulb then use a par 30 bulb led. I get them from Costco. The fixture was like 12 bucks and the bulbs are 25 and it grows my cheato like crazy. Works good lights super bright and I think it's only 15 watts and is dimmable

Just curious, can you pls pass along a link or pic? thx. :)

your in luck because i just got a new bulb two days ago for my new tank.


heres a pic of my set up tank

heres the bulb as u can see its led, 15 watts dimmable. its extremly bright because its a exterior flood light so its weather proof and its only $24 bucks and i buy them at costco. my cheato grows crazy and its a very cheep alternative. and u get no heat off this setup eather

I;m currently in the pursuit of a good efficient and cheap sump light and I am thinking of purchasing this unit from Ikea...

It has a color and intensity controller, 4 strips and it costs $39.99.... anyone have any experience with these? and is 2700k warm white enough for cheato?

just look for the wattage or the lumen output. A few watts like the jbj will grow some. But if you really wanna get some nutrient export done i would try something man sized :mrgreen:

I use a 70 watt LED on my fuge and it grows like mad (it is also the proper spectrum for algae growth).
