if its not one thing its another

Well my problems seem to keep mounting... first i have been trying to figure out why one of my 3 halides is not powering up i have checked the ballast, the connections, and replaced the bulb; but nothing. Now i am hearing a constant beeping coming from one of my tunzee streams and the flow is minimal at best coming from it. I thought it might be build up so i took it out and soaked it in vinegar for 24 hours to clean all the algae off and made sure the impelar was clean and no obstructions... and guess what? still beeping with almost no flow.

Has this happened to anyone else with the Tunzee streams, and if so what is the problem and how do i fix it?

Tough going Julio, I do not have any experience with the Tunzee but many here do. On the lighting part of your problem, what kind of fixture? Maybe we can help you with both problems.

Sounds like a voltage drop problem. Do this only if you can. With the halides on, and tunze, insert a voltage tester at the bottom half of the receptacle and measure the voltage. it should be a steady 110-120 volts. Or use an extension cord and plug to another receptacle.
