Hello

I am building a new Nano reef and need some advice.
Build Thread:
https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/citys-15-gallon-column-nano-reef-build.430708/

I have the small 13inch CPR Aquatics Aquafuge HOB Refugium on a 15gal Column tank that will be a Nano mixed reef.

The light that's built for the aquafuge is 7w but it sits above the fuge and the top of the fuge sits above the display. That spills light into the D.T. and I can't have that so I did not get that light.

I must be crazy.
I just ordered the I.M. ChaetoMax light. I found out it's a 9w light so it should not be too much for the chaeto. I can mount it to the back (hook n Loop) so it's not showing at all and not bleeding into the D.T.
The only problem is it costs $70.
I can get a 9w or better from Amazon or ebay for waaaaaaaay less.

I'm looking (and bidding) on this light...

It's 10w and right now is only $1.04
$1.04 beats the heck out of $70

Your thoughts?
Also, please feel free to visit my build thread.
