Default metal halides for frags or whatever

I have 2 mh pendants that measure about 16 -18 inches. looking to trade for frags because I down sized my tank. They have bulbs included I havent been able to plug them in because I lost the plugin adapter. would be willing to trade for frags or what not. No way am I putting these pupplys on my lil 20 long. they are aluminum with light rust no big damage and have a place at the top where you could hang them. thanks

they are two separate pendants each housing one bulb a buddy of mine looked at them and said that they needed to be hooked up to a pfo something
they are not in bad shape. The only use I would have for them would be growing cherry tomaters jk. There are no loose wires. the plug in isn't American it says j and j electronics. I like shrooms rics and nice zooanthids I dont need a whole lot neither.

my tank had been running for 2 months a 20 long with 4x65 watt Coral life pcs
live sand some live rock from my old tank about 4 years old just bought a needle wheel skimmer (rated 125gal) and a canister filter that flows about 300gph.

Have you sold the lights and....


what size are the bulbs?

pfo something----Have you figured out what this is?

j and j electronics---can't find anyting on them and I can usually find everything

plugin adapter----I take it this is the same thing as the pfo something you mentioned above?

How much do you want for them and can you take pics of them?

Thanks
Linda

no I havent sold the lights my boss at work said the plugin is a special kind made to fit pfo(certain brand) ballasts. they are in nice shape. I wouldnt even try putting these on anything less than 75. even then your gonna need a chiller. These were on a 180 reef tank before they are in good shape this is a steal for anyone who knows anything about mh. They are single ended bulbs. All I want in return are some nice looking frags shrooms zoos etc. As for pics im gonna search for my camera.

The plugs are made that way so you can't just shove them in to a wall reseptical as for the ballast you can get the correct plugs they have 2 off set round holes and 1 flat spade in the female section of the pluge the ballast ha the male portion of the plug.
