So our 2 yr old Current Sundial 4x24w fixture took a crap today! The tank is a 37g with some LPS and softies, a RBTA, and cpl other misc. 'nems.

I have a heavy internal ballasted Cadlight fixture but I would have to hang it and quite honestly I'm worried about it falling on the tank!

Soooo, seeing what's out there available. Would love to trade as opposed to purchasing. Thx!!!

*pssst...no pc's ;)
 
Ooops...meant to explain that.

The fixture has one cord but 2 ballasts for a dusk and dawn effect. Last night I replaced two bulbs. When I did that, I saw a small spark near one endcap. I figured the ballast fried, so I put the 2 new bulbs in the other positions...they lit fine but since it was past the photoperiod I shut it down. This morning I had errands to run and when I got home just my stunner strips that I modded on the fixture were lit.

I chatted with G and he figured that the working ballast may have tried to compensate for all and fried. All I know is at this point nothing is working.
 
That's what I figured. I'll try to locate some beefy brackets and hang off the wall. Luckily there's a stud directly center behind the tank, thus 16" either side...the ends of the tank.
