could a guy disasemble a coralife dual 96w fixture and retro in the parts in a hood?
THis seems like it would be cheaper if I already have the parts and ballasts and wires!
I would just need to buy some atantic lights to accent the MH I have now!!
 
No but I can Just take screws out and cut end plastic with switches so I didn't have to cut any wires!!
Now I have two individual ballasts and switches along with all the wireing!!
I'll take pics today!!
 
Here the aftermath
I forgot I took tinsnips and cut the reflecor in half!
I'm gonna go get two atantic bulbs and have alot of blue in the tank!!
I still gotta install in the hood!
Thats today!

Then I took the wirs and taped all together so it would be "cleaner".
Then I made alittle make shift switch holder!
hen I spliced al the wires back together and taped up as much as possible and installed on the BACK of the hood so it can't be seen from the front!!
Now I just have to hide the wires in the hood to the lightss and install the reflectors in the hood!
