Hanging the light is my last option. I really can't believe I can't find legs for this light. Coralife doesn't have much for any help.

Okay, I figured out the light part, now I am having problems with legs for the light. I bought a used 72 inch Coralife 3x150W HQI Lamp + 4x96W CF Lamps Sq. Pin. The legs that were sent with the light do not work. I went to LFS and they only have legs that go on the side track. I am hoping...

I spent about two hours on line trying that. I did send Coralife an email, just have to wait and see if they respond. Thanks for the idea, though.

I think I got the answer to this, the previous owner had daylight and actinic. I think maybe they are all supposed to be actinic. I guess most lights of this type would be the same.

I bought a used 72 inch Coralife 3x150W HQI Lamp + 4x96W CF Lamps Sq. Pin. I don't have a manual. My problem is that with my other light I ran the actinics one hour before and one hour after. When I turn the switch on both sets of lights (day and actinic)come on. Just wondered if anyone had...

some of us "newbies' just want to particpate online, but hardly get the consideration of an answer. I have done searches and come up with posts that are nothing to do with my search or they are never ending. I guess you could just look over our idiot posts.

I took King Neptune's advise and was patient on finding a used light. I got a used Coralife 72" Metal Halide 3x150W lighting system for $340, ($1,400 new)what a deal! My next project will be to remove my canister filters and get a sump going. My tank is 120g so any advise on how big a sump...

I had the same problem and found that my phosphates were high. I bought a can of phos something or other (don't remember the name) at my LFS and it really got it under control. A nylon pack that I put it in my canister filter. Of course, I still have to find the reason for it to begin with...

I like to see who the people are that respond to my posts and I noticed is was wifishman1's birthday. Hope you have a great one!

Thanks for the advise. I have been keeping my eye on C's list. So far, no luck but I am sure something will come along.

My tank is 20 deep x 72 long. Any suggestions on a narrow M/H fixture? I am watching on some on an auction but I know so little about M/H's that I don't even know if you need extras for them to work.

Thanks for the reply. It's not that I want to upgrade($$$$$) but do I need to. What is a PFO light, that term is new to me. I have seen some deals but am never sure on what to get. I will keep my eye open on the MH's. Would you add those to my existing ones or just run those? Thanks, again!

I currently have a Coralife 72 Inch Aqualight W/ 4-96W Sq. Pin Base And 5-3/4W Lunar Blue-Moon-Glow LED Lamps. From what I have been reading this isn't enough for corals. One statement about surviving vs thriving hit home. This light came with the tank so it is what I have been using. Should...

Thanks for the info, just wanted to be sure since it was on the same rock with some polyps.

Here is a pic of the top of it

The root-like object actually looks like it is going to what appears to be a baby feather duster. Does the color and texture mean that is something dried up? or could something actually grow from this?
