I can be the spokesperson for the POTM. However, I will need some endorsements and overhead reimbursement. BTW, my $20. gift card went to my sons LAX equipment. I put up a good fight though....you guys would have been proud.

Just got in touch with him. He is sending a NEW ballast tonight. I am aware of the ballast issues. However, from what I understand the new ballasts are capable of handling the draw. The old ones couldn't and would burn up in 6-10 months. They say the issues have been resoloved as this light is...

My lights come on around 10am and go off around 9pm. have mostly soft and LPS. However, I did just get some SPS at the swap in anticipation of my light comin in. Just gonna throw some hooks in the ceiling with some cheap chain until I can get it down to where I want it or where the light is...
My 90g tank has about 300w's of T5 lighting. I have a 716w MH/T5 arriving today. I plan on hanging the fixture about 20" above the tank and every week dropping it about 5" until it's about 6-8" above the tank. What doyou guys suggest???
