Refugium light

[Nyx101]

Hiya, looking to set up a small refugium in one of the rear chambers of my 13.5g nano. Looking for something I can adhere to the glass right behind it. I am not finding anything that would resemble it and ran out of keywords for my search. Can anyone please point me in the right direction? Thanks.

LED strips can be adhered to the glass, and would work well. Alot of users use them on chaeto reactors as well with great success

I’m a little late but I’m trying to start a refugium in my AIO as well and wondering the success you had with the lights recommended

What AIO? I'm using this 12w acke light with velcro adhered to the back of my Evo 13.5 (scraped pattern off glass). https://www.amazon.com/ACKE-Lights-...coding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=MA2P341PSE9EYMM5XN2D

a few bucks cheaper on eBay. Im using the 24w over my 40b refugium.

I got an aquatop Recife eco 40 gallon. I’m looking to start the refugium to better increase my pod population more so than for nitrate/phosphate control. I’ve just started a pod culture in a 5 gallon so I figure adding pods to the refugium and culturing them will save me some money for my mandarin.

is the back clear or painted? anyway you can scrape it clear? if not, then you'll need something submersible.
