I was just joking, I was going to buy some regular orange ones and go to lowes and get some spray paint and dry them off real good and give them a coat of paint with some clear coat on top so they wont flake.

I will sell you some for $500.

OH. Well i think i got the whole light thing figured out. Somewhat. Just wanted to thank everyone for the help and when i get bulbs, endcaps, reflectors ill take some pictures. THANKS again.

Why would is piss you off more than make you happy?

So all you have is 4 overdriven t 5's on a 120? If so i should be fine with 4 on a 75.

acer, you are running 4 bulbs also? I take it they are overdriven on a 660 ballast. What size tank are they on? Can you keep anything you want? Also i have 2 48" vho's that i could use with a seperate uv lighting ballast. I was thinking about using them for the sunrise sunset affect, since all 4...

Got the ballast today and it came with the wiring harness. I need endcaps, reflectors, and bulbs. What bulbs brand and style should i get for best growth and pop?

Thanks. Now i just need reflectors, endcaps and bulbs. What brand reflectors should i go with? where do i find them at? WIll any end caps work since i will be overdriven the bulbs?

Looks good. I found an icecap 660 ballast for $50 is that a good deal? It doesnt have a power cord though. Would i be able to get a power cord? It has some thing with it that keeps it cooler. Cant remember what its called.

And do you have any pictures of your tank with your bulbs selection? Thanks again for the help.
