bought one and my house electric circuit is not handling it.

the price check will help me decide if the investment in an electrician and the modifications worth it or not

The trouble with halides is that a lot of people who would normally buy halides are buying LEDs instead. Personally, I would buy halides over LEDs any day. However, I'm in the minority. Someone who wants a top notch halide fixture will pay the money for it, but being able to find a buyer may be the challenge.

There is someone selling the 250 watt version in Quebec asking $750 which I think is quite a steal! http://www.kijiji.ca/v-animaux-autres/trois-rivieres/eclairage-sfiligoi-72-aquarium-eau-salee/1023911251

How old is your fixture? I would be wanting more than $750 if the above one was my fixture, plus yours is the 400 watt version.

im not actually looking to sell it. more thinking about all the modification needed to run it vs what i paid =3

What do you need to modify to get it to work? It might be cheaper to get an electrician...

A whole new 20A circuit from to tank to the main board
About 20feets away

In my house, I had trouble running 3 lamps off one circuit. So I had an electrician branch off an adjacent circuit in the next room and run a new outlet to the tank area. Took about an hour and a couple bucks in parts. The adjacent circuit was from the bedroom which only runs a couple desk lamps and clock radios, so lots of room to run a lamp.
