The Neptune Systems GRO Macroalgae is a specialized 20W LED lamp designed to grow many common species of macroalgae (notably Chaetomorpha) using a specialized light spectrum that maximizes photosynthesis. The GRO uses all its power to emit light in two specific wavelengths optimized for macroalgae growth (455-460nm and 620-670nm). Its rectangular shape ensures that adequate light is directed where it is needed, minimizing the growth of unwanted algae in other areas of your tank.

Using the GRO lamp offers several benefits for maintaining your aquarium:
Optimization of photosynthesis: Helps maintain a healthy ecosystem by promoting the growth of beneficial algae.
Energy savings: LEDs consume less energy than traditional lighting systems while providing light suited to the needs of macroalgae.
Ease of installation and maintenance: The flat bracket allows for quick installation and stable positioning.
To install the GRO refugium lamp, attach the flat bracket to an appropriate surface of the aquarium, ensure the lamp is securely attached, then connect it to your power source. Adjust the orientation of the lamp to maximize light coverage of the desired area.
