Fish Fanatic
Hello, my name is nick and Im new to this forum. I live in the united states (pennsylvania), and have been keeping marine aquariums for the past 4 years.
I had a 90 gallon reef for the past couple years, but had to take it down when I planned to move to my first apartment for college.
Now that I'm here I decided to set up a 30 gallon tall with a 30 gallon sump, since I can't have 90 gallons on the second floor
Currently I am using a 36" 96 watt coralife compact fluorescent light. (10,000K and actinic) on my tank which has been running for three months now.
So my question is:
Is possible to take out the four compact fluorescent lights, and ballasts from my 48" 260 watt coralife compact fluorescent fixture that I used on my old 90 gal. and "rehouse" it in something that would fit nicely on my current tank.
I do not know a lot about electricity other than the basics of soldering wires, and circuits, but would love to save the money of buying a new light.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Nick
