Here it is installed although it is not aimed at the refugium in this photo.


So I am wondering if anyone has any tricks to get this light to fire up? Or are their more reliable tubes available from what I can find at Home Despot?

Although reviewing the J&L summary of the Coralife the 9" unit it could be a very nice solution.
