60 inch Outer Orbit 2x150W HQI 2x130W Dual Actinic 6 LED

Hi

 

Editing this post.

 

I have discovered that one of the HQI 150 watt lights in this fixture does not work.

 

I am sure this can be fixed. I am thinking of taking it apart and using the compact flourecents and single HQI light that works for other projects. Before I go and take it apart I was wondering if anyone wanted to fix this thing. Chances are someone with any skills can fix this easy. Worst case senerio is that it needs a new HQI ballast but it could be a simpler problem

 

I would trade for some supplemental actinic lighting of some sort. I now have 2 250 watt HQI above my tank but i need some supplimental light for morning and night.

 

If no trade I will sell it for $175.00. The working HQI bulb is less than a month old 14,000k.

 

I will also consider a trade for frags or a decent lighting system for my 30 inch frag tank. If I cant sell it I am going to take it abart and use the functioning 150 HQI for the frag tank and the duel 110 watt compact florescents for supplementing my 140 gallon tank. It just seems a shame to take this thing apart. It is a nice looking hood with lots of potential. Less than a year of use.

Bump for new information in post.

I said to hell with it and started to take the light fixture apart. The ballasts and fans look brand new inside this fixture. Now I need to spend some serious DIY time with it to make the functioning parts work for me.

How much would ya sell the housing and HQI's for? You were only taking out the actinic's ( PC's ) right?
