Refugium lighting

I found this while browsing about......thought I would share it here. It seems a cheap/easy way to light your refugium without creating alot of heat besides....it's also a sealed bulb, so no worries about water splashes.........

Just get the clip on light from Home Depot ... and the PC light in the same isle. 65w or 120w equivalent; twin pack. Grows algae like crazy !!!! That's what I suggest when people ask for help with setting up tanks. I also use them for my tanks. All for less than $20.
