Light to grow Chaeto

[jackfish520]

I have a fluval evo 13.5 and was wondering if this amazon light would be able to grow chaeto? Looking to grow it in my second chamber to create a mini refugium.​

Thanks for the recommendation. Looking for the smallest and cheapest option that can actually grow chaeto. This amazon one is only $12 but not sure if it would be strong enough to grow anything.

I use the canagrow from Amazon. It tends to grow a couple gallons of cheato per week for me! I know others with the same success! It's only like $30 too!

I use the Tunze Chic. White version actually (just personal preference). Grows chaeto great and I have to deal with light spill way less since it’s sumberged. I have an extra one on hand in case I needed the extra power but growth has been sufficient so far.
