    They are very easy to replace, just make sure you get the right ones. If the fixture is under a year old, it should be covered under warranty, they may just send you new ballasts. I myself would upgrade to better ballasts IMO..

    Well.... I'm not sure. You might be able to call Odessey directly and get a replacement from them.

    You could also get an aftermarket external ballast as well. This one would sit next to your tank or somewhere out of the way, then you run new wires up to the light sockets.
