I originally wanted to put halides over my cube, but went with LEDs due to the temperature issues. I had halides on my first tank and loved them...LEDs on the last 2 and sadly, am barely impressed.

Time to change it up for the winter :)

If anybody has a relatively inexpensive 250W halide setup they'd like to sell, please let me know.

Scott I've seen those and really like them :) I'll try to keep an eye out for a used set.

Thanks for the link Seth...I'll give it some thought. I'd definitely have one to sell to help out with keeping it affordable...but that shipping cost looks painful. $75? ouch.

Lol yea...I was teased for a minute. I've seen them new for about $100 shipped so that'd probably be the better option for me.

I'm fairly certain mr bush of coral xpressions still has a set of 250w mh for sale, I traded them to him for a LED light. He bought new bulbs and everything for em. Might shoot him a message

Get somebody to get you an OceanLight from AquaMedic. Put a 14K phoenix in it and call it a day.

Cheap MH are no bargain. If you do get DE stuff, then make sure that it has a M80 ballast. I would run most SE stuff on M58, or even M80.

I have some pendants that you can borrow to try stuff out, but I don't want to sell any.
