What’s some opinions on this light for a refugium with live rock, Xenia, mushrooms and macro algae?

Asking cause have this light for a previous planted system, wondering if I could get some use or if it might be too strong? It’s the 600 series. Thanks!

Ive heard good things about Twinstar lights. But if you needed to save money there are Fluval gro lights out there.
Well I actually already have the Twinstar light.. had it from a previous planted tank. Since I already have it, was wondering if it’d be a decent light for a refugium?

It is full spectrum. It should work.

Full spectrum is way better than the pink fuge lights. I run a fluval planted 3.0 nano over my fuge and it grows crazy. I would think the twinstar planted would be great.
