I did a DIY hood for my tank a few months ago. All was fine until I went to clean the Bulbs ( 2 MH&2 PC). One of the 175w MH bulbs was cracked about halfway up from the mogul base& with a gap of about 1 inch between the 2 halves, it still worked but the internals were exposed. When I built the hood I left no barrier between the tank and the bulbs due to a 14" gap between them. I am now rethinking the idea, what do you all use or do? Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks again
