Hi everyone, I'm moving down here next month and have been setting up a 120 drilled tank here to have for my livestock when I mail them down. I bought it from Adam, but I found out that the halides have been burning through the top of the cabinet and the PVC intake pipe. Does anyone know of a heat resistant material or reflector I can use to help prevent this? Lowes had no idea. I thought the material from welding gloves might work, but I thought I would ask if anyone experienced this before.

Also, He had hooked his actinic and full spectrum lights to an 8 wire connector. However, he didn't have the male connector that went to the plug to plug these into the wall. Should I rewire them or try to find another 8 wire connector. Again, Lowes didn't have one that big.

Any ideas would be appreciated. Unfortunately, I am only in town for 2 more days and will be back in a month. Thanks
