Power compact Fixture Needs Fixing

[Reef69]

Does anybody know of a place where they could fix a power compact fixture?..

[MikeDeL]

whats wrong with it?

[Reef69]

I think water got inside the socket and made a bulb burn..i got new bulbs for it today and one of the sockets doesnt work.

[MikeDeL]

Ballast may be fried.

[Reef69]

well, heres a question...are 130 watts of 10,000k light + 65 watts of actinic blue 03 enough for a RBTA on a 25 gal.? :blink

[MikeDeL]

I dont know, but I would guess it wouldnt be enough.

[Reef69]

well, i guess i need a new fixture then..sucks.. >_< :angry

[GaryP]

That's more than enough light for an RBTA.

[Reef69]

Thanks gary, i guess Ill have to run 2 65 wat 10,000ks and 1 65 wat. blue actinic since the other socket is busted :(

[GaryP]

You'll just be giving up some color. Since the RBTA doesn't have any blue pigment you won't even notice on it.

[OldSalty]

I agree with gary here. pleanty of light

[Reef69]

What happens if i substitute the 10,000k for a 50/50?..and leave the other fixture as it is..with its 10,000k and its actinic
