I have a 48" long tank. I am looking for some MH"S, magnetic of course. Would like 175 watts, but will settle for 150. Also would prefer stand alone fixture, but retro will do, planning on building stand and canopy anyway

I have a dual 175w PFO MH ballast with quick release cord for sale. I'm asking $120 shipped. This is only ballast and cords looks like this

okay first, manteca is just south of stockton, north of modesto, or 1 hr south of the state capital. my tank is 18" deep. thanks for the offer on the ballast, but at the present am kind of looking for a stand alone unit.

if this will me SPS mainly...go with 175w or 250w (it'll be nice and bright)
