setting up my new tank

[Troy F]

I put together my lighting using a mercury vapour ballast (tar/coil) and a Iwasaki bulb for less than $200. I already had the Icecap 660 otherwise I'd have just used N.O. actinics.

According to an article in one of the magazines, written by either Sanjay or Dana Riddle, the Blueline E was actually less efficient than the other ballasts.
