I'm looking for a cheap light for a 20 gallon long display refugium that will grow macros well. This light looks like it would work but I can't find much info about using it to anything in aquariums. Does anyone have any experience with this light or have any suggestions around the same price?

Amazon product ASIN B088KK88NH
 
I have had good luck with macros using a V600. Maybe they are about the same
 
My Chaeto grow really well (too well and suck up all the PO4 and Iron in the water) with Viparspectra 600W LED Grow light on the lowest setting. I have to do daily dosing of P04 and iron to keep it up or the Chaeto will die. Amazon product ASIN B07YWYH439
 
Thanks for the replies. I'm going to go ahead and give this light a try. I had looked at both of those lights already but decided against them because this will be on a display refugium and I'd prefer a whiter light
