Looking for 175W MH bulbs
Just wondering if anybody has any old 175 bulbs sitting around that I could have. I will pay shipping. Or even used bulbs for a small, small fee. Thanks.

steve,
I think you get the picture. If you have the bulbs front to back...then you are going to get more of the area lit than if parallel with your sockets on either end. Each end of your tank...

Stephane, another question (by the way, your canopy is very very nice. Good job on the DIY). Are you running actinics with your 20K bulbs?

I will have my 400's at 6inches. But even if your fluorescents pass at both ends of the bulbs, they are lower than the bulbs so it will definitely create a shadow because the light from the halides...

why doesn't your middle halide have a reflector? Also, are you running open tops? How do you keep the canopy so clean if it is open tops? Thanks so much..
Also, doesn't...

Few questions
1. Why would you get a better spread if you mount your halides front to back as opposed to parallel with your tank? I have a 4 x 2 footprint and running to 400w halides. If I...
