Well ... that bond might hold. What I'm afraid of, one small bump and that thing will be loose again and back to square one. It's probably OK to leave it for now, but if you think of it next time you're at one of the handy-dandy LFS, just pick up a new aquastick and glob some more epoxy and squish more around that base.
Evan and Ross, I'm wondering where you guys found those Coralife ballasts. From what I've been able to find out by cruising the web this morning, it sounds like those dimmable ballasts are using some kind of proprietary bulb -- ie., you can't use just any 175W bulb. I could be wrong on this, so don't get me wrong or anything. But if it is true, it could mean you may be rather limited in your choice of suppliers for replacement bulbs. So keep the URL's of websites where you got those ballasts handy -- they'd be the places I'd be trying to contact when it's time to replace them bulbs.
