Is reefkeeping more addictive than Heroin?

[Alfredo De La Fe]

Hey Guys:

I have the reef bug again, just when I thought I kicked it. ;-)

Just finished ordering the ballasts and bulbs to upgrade my lighting to 400W MH from 175W MH. Add this to all of the money I have been spending and a drug habit would be cheaper.

Anyway, if anyone needs one of the older Energy Savers Unlimited tar ballast for 3- 175W MH (Has their old quick disconnect adapter) let me know. It probably will only work with the older energy savers hood.

OR- I would be willing to trade the whole 72" setup with ballast in exchange for a new hood/reflector with the mogul's. (I already ordered the ballasts and bulbs) Probably would cost about $600 to get and you would have a 175W Metal Halide hood.

Let me know quick, before I drill out the rivets in the hood to rewire it...

I have a 180 and I am starting to think that >>MY<< tank is to small. ;-)

I wish I had a bigger place and a lot more $$$ to set up 4 systems: SPS, Soft coral, fish only and an amazon fresh water planted tank. One could dream...

As it stands right now, I plan on sneaking in a 6 gallon tank for seahorses without my wife noticing. haha Trying to think of where I can put it. I plan on buying one of those setups in Petland for $39.99 and fit a small skimmer where the bio-wheel filter is.
