No. No stinky. Of course, it's hard to tell over the cat and dog stinky, and the 7-year old boy stinky.

T 6 was what you got was it not ?

Oh hell I had you confused with another Linda (: Linda the Nano cube you have its the ballast the weak link of that brand I have one just like it . The lights ballast went out at about 9 months . I'm going to rework a set and locate the ballast out side the tank. They stuck it under the hood and all that Moisture kills them. Just think someone went to school for a ling time to get that stupid. To bad they where not made to work with tools in the field a few yrs then they could have applied common sense after repairing some of their design mistakes . I'm going to build a water proof LED's sealed in acrylic for ours here. How are the corals doing ? you can set it near a window for a few days as the only ballast that will wrok is the one for that hood if you go back with OME stuff .

I've been eyeing those clip-on lights, so now I guess I'll get one. Thanks all!
