I am working on a new tank build (60g w 20g sump) and am deciding on a refugium light.
My sump is this Fiji Cube 20 Sump and the fuge chamber front (where I plan to mount the light) is about 6" by 15" though the water level will likely be between 8-9":
I currently have this ACKE light from Amazon on the fuge in my biocube, and it's worked very well attached to the back glass:
Originally I had just planned to use this, but then started thinking I may include it when I sell my old tank. So, I could just order a new one for the new build (they're super cheap) but I also started looking at other options that may fit the dimensions of my new sump a little better.
I was looking at the IM Aqua Gadget lights, either the single strip or the double strip one. Thoughts on these lights?
Any other suggestions under $100, or, since the ACKE performed very well for me, I should stick with that? Any light I get would need to be mounted to the front or side of my sump, nothing coming from above.
