Yup they should just push together and stay. Are they sending you a new part?

that's what I thought. I just hope it's the splitter box and not the plastic clip on the fixture's control cable-- because THAT piece is hard-wired into the UNIT!! I can't tell from visual inspection that there's anything wrong with the control cable. but with my luck....

haven't heard back yet-- it was late Friday afternoon by the time I picked up the cables, got home, and got the thing plugged in. I hope to hear back on Monday...

Just heard from Albert, bless his sunday afternoon working soul... he's shipping a fresh splitter box to my home, putting it out tomorrow for delivery. he has been quite patient with my brand of fishy infuriation.

Albert is a good dude so I'm not surprised he's helping you on a Sunday.

it will be soooooooooo nice to see those lights in their proper glory. The corals are already loving the light-- bigger, puffier, and i have never seen such great colour.
wowowowowow
Monday morning: the splitter box is here! plugged it in and it is working perfectly on both sides-- plug ins and lighting unit connection.
aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. now that is pretty.
double wow.
boy, are the corals happy. and so am I! Thank you, ALBERT!!!
