Fuge light suggestions?

MrSquid · 01/09/2008, 08:14 AM

I was tired last night and accidentally posted this to the Reef Discussion area.

I need a light for my fuge. Needs to fit either front>back on a 12" tank or at most, 16" and go across the fuge. I don't have room for a clamp-on style light, so it'll need to be a strip of some sort.

Here's a pic. Fuge is way on YOUR left side of the pic. Same chamber as the Phosban reactor. 12" deep X 16" wide. There's tons of tubing running through here now (this pic is from the morning before I did the plumbing) - that's why there's no room for a clamp-on light.

There's a UV sterilizer on the shelf above the fuge - it feeds the fuge chamber (as does the Phosban reactor)

Suggestions?

Consider the Lights of America PC floodlights at Home depot. The 65W (6500k I think) is $40 and about 12 inches in length. If you go that route dont forget to buy a cord to wire it up.

I'm trying out the Current USA Powerbrite LED for my fuge. I don't have a lot of room either. So far so good, but it's only been a few weeks.
