The Neptune Systems GRO refugium light is a specialized LED lighting solution designed to cultivate various types of macroalgae such as Chaetomorpha in saltwater reef aquariums. This compact and efficient light features 84 LEDs emitting light at wavelengths between 455-460nm and 620-670nm, which are ideal for maximizing photosynthesis rates in macroalgae without promoting the growth of nuisance algae elsewhere in your system. Its rectangular shape ensures that light is evenly distributed across a large surface area, making it particularly effective for use with sumps or dedicated refugium compartments.

Be forewarned, this package does not come with the power supply. It is meant to plug into the Neptune Apex controllers. If you are buying it to use stand alone factor another 25 dollars for the power supply. Innovative Marine has a similar grow light for 110 dollars.
Great performance, my chaeto grows very fast and I harvest every week. Nice spectrum that make grow only macro algae, not undesired micro algae. Very recommended!
this is a must buy product i love it Very good
Had high hopes for this light the mount is absolutely horrible the design would be perfect if it actually held the weight of the light it just droops over . The light spectrum it produces grows hair algae extremely well with that said I love apex so I switched from a h380 to this to limit heat . Well went back to a Kessil five light because I was tired of hair algae . Cleaned my sump added clean chato which I did twice with the gro and my chato has exploded and no hair algae
easy to install great light spread for the refugium
