Do Not Listen To Me!!!
So I have had these lights for about 2 months running with brand new bulbs given to me by Marineland. The light itself was just under a year old when I got it so it was still under warranty.
I just noticed last night left left side of the tank looked dim. I bend down and look and one of the T5's was out(blue) I have all 8 Actinic bulbs.
So I decide to shut the T5's to see if somehow it just needs a wiggle. I shut the T5's but I noticed it still looks dim. Now mind you the MH bulbs have been on for about 3 hours.
I take a look at the MH bulbs and the outside 2 on both sides are looking a little dim. I am like WTH. So I slide open the cover and wiggle the T5 and it falls out because I turned it. I was like UGhhh with no-one to help lift this huge light.
So I look back at the MH bulbs and they are fully lit.
I emailed Marineland because now I am scared to leave home with this thing running and by the way the T5 that is out was one of the original T5s that was out in the first place.
Something has to be messed up inside. I have had no issues with the MH or the T5 till now. I only think it has to be something because the same T5 is out that was out when I got it.
Anyone?
