Too much hassle to try and polish them & not sure there's anything that will work without ruining them totally. The endcaps, wiring and ballast in the GLO lights show good workmanship and are good quality components. If switching lamps individually is your goal, I have no hesitation in recommending a number of single lamp GLO lights rather than a monster fixture with 4, 6 or 8 lamps crammed in close together. Fans for cooling are about the only worthwhile improvement I'd like to see on the GLOs.

Interesting. I agree, contstruction is very sturdy. I wouldnt hesitate to run the singles as well for switching but I just dont have the room over the tank. Fans would be pretty sweet too, could diy something.
