Aquarium Advice FINatic
Hello, I have a 120 gal tank and got a lighting hood when I purchased the tank, I don't know the brand of the hood but its a MH with PC's and moonlights. I don't know how old it is but my MH lights arent working anymore. It looks like the bulp is faintly lit but will not fully fire. I tested the sockets and if i remember correctly, they were around 215 volts. Im guessing the ballasts arent working correctly. Question is, do I replace both ballasts, get all new bulbs and hope it works well or just suck it up and buy a new fixture.
The tank is 66 inches long and 20 inches deep. I was looking at this model http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/Prod_Display.cfm?pcatid=12113&N=2004+113352. Would the 48'' strip work? I would eventually like to have some corals in the tank.
Currently the tank only has one of the actinic lights working, its been this way for a couple weeks and I want to get light in there asap. Any other lighting suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!
