Hello all,
I have a 70gal display tank and a 90 gal refugium tank (same water column) with a mix of fish and easy corals (mostly polyps)
I currently have a large light fixture that houses 2x250w MH bulbs and 2x100w blue actinic VHO bulbs.
Recently my ballast for the VHO part of the setup died and is almost $100 to replace, plus the bulbs are ready to be replaced also. The MH bulbs are new and seem to be working fine so I don't want to replace yet for fiscal reasons.
I was wondering if I could mix/match MH and LED by adding two of these 100w blue led's mounted on a heatsink cut into the top of the hood with some drivers mounted to top of the hood?
Would be a low cost replacement for the VHO ballast and would get me slowly started into the LED world.
Any suggestions/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Gary
