i finished installing my lighting tonight. i have 2 HO T5 54w actinic with hagen GLO electronic ballast. i am only going to use them for dawn and dusk because the aquaconnect bulbs already produce enough blue light. also i installed the LED lighting from IKEA that someone on canreef posted about (sorry i dont remember their name) but they are 4 strips of led lights for my lunar lighting. no pics of the actinics on and lunar lights yet but tonight i'll try and take some. i took some pictures of the inside of the canopy with all the lights installed. i've been told that the GLO ballast is dimmable so when i figure out how to wire to my profilux i'll have dimmable T5's which will rock. it is the one reason i went with this ballast.






i still cant figure out how to get my camera to adjust the color properly so it doesnt look so blue but you get the idea. the only lights on in these pictures is the halides. the small strips across the top between the pendants are the LED strips.
