Refugium lighting question...

[Scuba Dan]

Will a 36watt PC lighting fixture be enough lighting for a refugium?
Thanks,

How large is the refugium? It should be plenty.

[Scuba Dan]

The tank is 50 gal. 36" long and only the middle part is going to be used, about 18" the rest is for the skimmer and the return pump.

[despot101]

Yeah that should work great.

[Scuba Dan]

Thanks for the help....

[jpfelix]

are going to leave your lights on 24hrs. or do a light cycle?

just curious.

[Scuba Dan]

I think I will cycle the lights.

The PC has one green and one white lamp. Does the green matter. I can get the just the white lamp, but it comes with the one side green and the other white. Its a real nice fixture. Alum. case with a clear lexan cover with a reflector.
