This is for ppl who have odyssea lights

I cant speak for you Cworkman, but my ballasts where 2+ yrs already and the difference is night and day. The light is so bright, that I dont have to turn on my living room(LR) lights on, it brights up the whole LR. But I think its safe to say that you will notice the difference. Hook up only one and see if there is. Keep us posted. Luna

 

Just a side question- how old is your tank, Luna?

 

Read my sign at the bottom. Luna

 

That just gives me something to look forward to in 9 years!

 

It will be 10 yrs in Nov. One of my "nemo's" and two Flower Anemones that I have will be turning 10 yrs old in Nov. Luna

 

I am considering a used odysea fixture and replaceing the ballast as you suggest. Outside of that, are you satisfied with Odysea fixtures?

Thanks!

 

Overall, I am satisfied. I also have the Ice Cap ballasts and they really are a huge improvement over the stock (in addition to new bulbs.) Even with the upgrades, I spent less than I would have if I had gone with the equivalent in one of the more popular brand names.

 

Mine is a real headache. I could put a pretty good dent in the price of a new one for what I'm going to spend fixing it up.
Your experience may vary.

 

is that 129$ each? youch
