Right now I have 2 coralife 50/50's and 2 coralife actinics sitting around.
My questions are:
Does anybody have any experience doing this? Does it get too hot?
Where is a good place in the Vancouver area (perferably closer to Coquitlam) to buy bulds and flourescent equipment?
Thanks

you can do it with an electronic ballast, but I can tell you now it is a waist of time. the increase in light you will get will still be nowhere near that of a PC, HO, VHO, ect..
