A couple of months ago i purchases and older Coralife 4' 2 x 175 Watt Metal halide unit. Now this unit does not have any reflectors above the lights so i am wasting a bunch of light that is not making it down. Does anyone have any recommendations on places to purchase reflectors? Then hopefully i will be able to adjust it into place.

Thanks

Steve

J&L has a nice reflector that SHOULD please read that as SHOULD fit the fixture. I had one of those older ones and was really happy with it over a 90 gallon tank. Believe it or not that flat white finish inside the fixture is a fair reflector, not great but not bad either.
Here is a link to the page, I'd look at the 15 inch but two 24s may just fit.
