Awesome Refugium Light

[Meric]

I was at my local walmart today and I came across what should be an awesome refugium lightbulb.

This is a 20 watt 6500K Compact Flourescent, but the best thing is the lightbulb is only $5.00

It should make for a perfect Refugium light. I purchased one for my fuge right away.

It is made by lights of america, and the part number is: 2220-65K

edit: I meant to put this in the Lighting forum. Sorry.

Yep they do, tho it was $35 last time I looked... still a good deal... That is what I'm using on both of my fuges.

i used it years ago on my 10g nano.. along with a 9 watt LOA porch light,, i just bought a blue 9 watt bulb..... i had those 2 and a 2x13 retro kit in a 20"flou light strip over it..... 100 watts of light over a 10g...
it was sweet, but the hood was rather tall.. lol
