    Have you tried your bulbs yet?
    Do you mean your (our) bulbs? These are my first MH bulbs.

    Just wondered if you had received the Venture bulbs you bought on Ebay yet and if so, how they look on your tank.

    They are very bright as I had been used to PC. I am pleased with them. If I run 10 hours a day, when would be the replacement interval?

    Most MH bulbs will last more than a year. I believe the Venture bulbs claim an 8000 hour avg lifespan. Even if they will run that long, the color spectrum usually changes as they age. For this reason, many people change their bulbs every 12 - 18 months.

    Sure thing.


    Take 281 N. to 290. Take 290 East to Loop 1 (Mopac). North on Mopac to the Anderson exit. East on Anderson to Northcross Drive. South on Northcross Drive to the 4-way stop. Turn right at the 4-way stop. AA will be immediately on your left in the same center as Castle Dental.

    The address is 7756 Northcross Drive # 111 and the phone number is(512) 206-0646.

    Look forward to seeing you there!
