I recently built a refugium for under the spare 55 tank i had. I have a 15 gallon, split into 3 parts using plexiglass for the dividers. I moved some pieces of this long hair algea that was on this rock into this tank. I also purchased a light to go with this. Now this is the funky part. The algea that i put in there is turning brown, which of course its not suppose to My problem i think is the light that i bought. I bought something called a Compact Florescent Stip-Lite from oceanic systems. Its 55 watts but i think i am missing something. Should i be using a actinic light to help the algea grow or is this light fine?
