    Should I ask???

    if you knew the policy before you bought the item and still made the choice to buy it me do not think you have a right to ask for refund. we always ask how long the fish has been in store and if it has been eating.

    DIY "LED" build "Linear Design"

    Tank in the garage?

    me like blue light more better over white light. if mdeal halide is white and you dont like turn on during night and let blue light during day. it sound like he only do for a few weeks during his move and want to heat the tank. light have to come on so if at night less electric running heaters...
