You can build a 175w for about $138 plus shipping. That will give you the reflector, Mogul, a bulb, and a ANSI M57 ballast. This will not give you an inclusure for teh light, but if your tank is covered, who cares. You can find what you need here, if your interested. http://www.hellolights.com/elbalmethal1.html Dan |
