Has anyone ever tried using any of these to grow macros in their Refugiums?

35 Watt Floodlight.

20 Watt Floodlight.

11 Watt Floodlight.

I know they are all made in the same factory probably, but these Everlast lights tended to have the highest average reviews of all the ones I found on Amazon. I just ordered the 3 above and they are now in a trial phase we will see how they do. One thing is for sure they are bright. I have the 35 Watt over one refugium and the 11 Watt actually ended up going over a ten gallon planted tank. The 20 watt I am going to attempt to use with an ATS I dont think it will have enough red in the light though.


I have had really really great success with this bulb below. I had to pretty much empty out the whole refugium every other week everything was growing super fast with around 12 hours on each day.

You can find these same lights on ebay with red/blue grow light multichip. That would be better for a refugium. I've seen a few waterfall ATS's using the 20W version.
