Hi,
I'm currently trying to refit a rio 180 and am having no joy with this fluval*see below* 100cm 2x45w t5 ballast i've bought.
The second replacement has arrived and still does not work. Bulbs flick on for a second then out again. I am now thinking it might be the very expensive fluval bulbs (bought because they are the only manufacturer of 45w t5 bulbs).
Thinking about sending it all back and getting a refund.
Can anyone suggest an alternative 100cm closed tank or open tank alternative? I think there are some 2x39w t5 ballasts out there including an eheim one i cannot find a price for.
Best Regards,
John
edit - made a mistake here it is a juwel ballast not a fluval one.
