Lighting For HOB Refugium

[nikkoli110]

I bought a HOB refugium from someone on these boards, and it didnt come with a light fixture, so I was wondering what everyone else uses for a light. I was looking at the 36 Watt Coralife Mini Aqualight Power Compact lights, or a Glaxy light that just clips on, its 13 watts and has a 7200*K bulb and is 9-1/8" x 5-1/4" x 2-1/8". I wasnt sure what else to get for it, I dont want anything to big, because it will be above my aquarium and I dont want it to look bad. Thanks!

I had a 18in. hob myself.. I used a jalli13 light...It was small and did the job..I cut pieces of acrylic and put them over the top of fuge for my light to sit on..

That sounds pretty good, where did you buy the light? I have looked on ---- for a while, I see alot of new fuge kits come with that type of light, but I have never seen it sold separately.
