Review: Great light! - This is a great light for the refugium. I have the IM Nuvo 20g all in one tank. I decided to use the 2nd chamber as my refugium. I purchased an IM Media Caddy and took out one of the shelf’s. Ball of chaeto in the larger compartment and some marine bio sphere in the lower shelf. This light is perfect! The perfect size, amount of brightness. I mounted it directly to the back of my AIO compartment. Note: some IM tanks have a black vinyl sticker on the entire back of the AIO compartment. Using a straight edge and a box cutter I had to LIGHTLY score the section of vinyl to remove so the light could penetrate into the accessories compartment. Took about 3 mins to do. (IM should really include something about this step in the directions) Like other have said, no timer but I use Samsung SmartThings home automation system so just plugged this light into one of my controlled outlets and set an automation to turn on at 1800 and off at 0600. Piece of cake. ## Features - Designed for Refugium Sumps and AIO Aquariums.
