I am setting up a small quarentine and I am planning on using the light for a refugium once im done.
what would be a good cost effective option,thinking of going LED

I used a cheap fluval led over my refuge for a long time. I've also used a simple shop light over a refuge with great success.

If it is a fish only qt, I do not use a light. I simply cover for the first few days and then use the ambient light from the room. This works because there is light. I would use a simple, cheap light otherwise.

Mars aqua or SB 16in

Oops, ignore my message then. I have no idea what to recommend on LEDs. Good luck finding a light though!

Ohh. Well, I use an AI prime for my coral QT, but it's a permanent thing and isn't going to be taken back down. Using an AI prime for a refuge would be total overkill.
