What is a good Refugium Light??

I need some lights for my Refugium. What would be a good one? I bought two of those work lights that you can clip on to stuff for like $5 each from walmart. Now i just need the bulbs.

I use the Nvision 23w (90w equal) floodlights from Home Depot, I believe right now I'm using the cool white. Grows Chaeto very well. This is not my refugium light it's my box with Chaeto in it light

I've got two 4' fluorescent work tubes and two 4' plant grow tubes over my 'fuge. I'm growing Chaeto in it, with some LR.
