I'm going to be setting up a CPR HOB Refugium(small) shortly, I've heard mention of people using a clip on led light from Home Depot. Any specific model or brand? Thanks in advance

I use a clip on light and a 6500k LED. You need to use at least 5000k, but I think that 6500k is best. I get awesome growth on my chaeto with it. The only place I could find a 6500k was on amazon!

Which Phillips light is it? Is it a white light or an individual led lightd?
Any chance of getting a pic of the light?
