GreenSpottedPuffer is an unknown quantity at this point
Default LF-Dual 250 watt MH ballast

Mine burnt out a while back and figure I will finally replace it. Open to most brands but prefer electronic start.

If you have the sockets and cords too that would be fine otherwise I should have most of the parts.

Thanks.

I've got 2 regular ballasts enclosed in safety box with vent fans to cool, one connected to reflector with eye bulb(6500 k), the other connection needs reflector/cord. No longer fits with my plans so just gathering dust. Make an offer if you're interested. Still have that Coral Beauty?

Still looking. Even just 2 separate 250 watt ballasts would work.

The ballast are "Standard" brand product code BALM0250QCA - 10118STD. If you call Nedco ask for Mat he was very helpful.

Standard makes good products; I replaced my nanocube CF ballast with one of theirs.

BALM0250QCA = M58/H37 250w Probe Start

Might want to take a look at:

BALM0250TCA/PS = M138/M153 250w Pulse Start

Both are Cap & Coil

Good bulb reference: http://www.aquarium-lighting-guide.c...al-halide-ansi


Ack, I hope I'm not hi-jacking here....
