LED's for a Refugium?

Would these lights work for a refugium? I have several. Some are all blue, some are just white and some are white and blue.

Just flourescent light will work, nothing fancy. Is this for the 10 gallon tank you asked about?

If so I have a new 15 gallon tall plug and play ready to be a refugium. It's 3/4" drilled for a herbie drain to go right in a sump, has all the fittings, strainer, bulkheads and valves, lights, tinted sides to prevent algae from growing elsewhere, I cut off the 3 inches of excess from the bottom trim so it can fit under my stand. All you would have to do is throw a pump in your sump or tee off your return and add one of my nice sea swirls or grab one of the nano Powerheads I have (koralia or jebao) and you're in business. Hell I'll throw in some rock and a 20 lbs. bag of Bahamas oolite sand plus a nano magnet cleaner. $150 and you'll have a refugium this afternoon.

Edit: I have a pump I can throw in too. Pretty sweet deal.

No, I was wanting a 10 gallon for my ATO. I ended up getting one at Petsmart. I'm asking about the lights for a refugium I just set up today with an acrylic tank.

I would do something in the 6500K or lower range. Plenty available. I think the PAR 38 bulbs (led spot lights) are pretty popular. Can't remember for sure, but thinking sub 3000K. Cheap as well.
