change up

[TroyPham]

i've been thinking about changing up my lighting for a while. after my vho ballast went out last week i'm forced to make a decision, now i'm just running a 250wt 12k mh. I currently have a cooltouchlighting pendent. it has served me well over this tank and i have upgraded the mh ballast back in march of 07 to a coral vue eballast. ever since going by Ace's place and seeing his diy lumenarcs i've been thinking about how i can make a lumenarc work with t5's. well i think i have come up with some thing. I have ordered the parts.

but this will be the base that i'm working with.

and this as my t5 setup over driving 4-24" bulbs. all t5's will be super actinics.

I'll start the picture taking process as parts come in.
