Part 44963 - 4 x 96 watt Bright Kit
Do you think this kit woul dbe adequate for a 135 FOWLR? And is that a fair price for it?

I'm not a big fan of PC lighting.In my opinion,MH with regular flo is the way to go.That is what I have,and I bet I didn't pay over $300 for my complete lighting setup.Look into retrofit kits.You will save tons....But I guess that does look like a good deal....

 

[thewizzrd]

where did you get your lights from? I'm trying to keep it simple, and cheap.

<a href="http://www.aquaticlight.com./" target="_blank">http://www.aquaticlight.com./</A> The cheapest MH on the net.The rest(flo's) I put together myself from cheap shoplight fixtures.I gutted them,then just mounted the bulb sockets directly to the inside of my canopy.

salty, what do you have for lighting?

 

[mr . salty]

Two 30 watt actinic,two 40 watt(one 50/50,one 10k)and two 175watt 10k blueline...

 

[thewizzrd]

so the 30 and 40 watts are flos? Ar ethe mh's expensive to run electricity wise?

I never noticed an increase in my bill,but I never really pay much attention to it...The MH's are only on 4-5 hours a day anyhow...
