I bought these twisty bulbs from costco a while back, the Kelvin states 5000K, it's very white compared to all the other ones.
Would it be OK this light for a fuge light? PC's are just expensive compared to these little bulbs and I need to downgrade to save on electric bill.

Thanks
 
I think 5500 to 6500 is what most people are using. I'm using 6500 on mine. Lowes and HD have many types of these bulbs. I would also suggest getting the floodlight-version, if your fuge has an open top like mine.
 
I went today to costco, it reads 5800K so I'll give it a shot plus today I bought at a sidewalk sale two clip on Aluminum reflectors.
I got a sump couple of days ago, still has some water, chaeto, rock and couple mangroves, it's running by itself now with a heather so I'll add the light tomorrow.

Thanks !
