    Out of the gutter

    i made it with some rain gutter coat hangers duct tape and a few ballasts, 8)

    I made up a new lighting set up , wasn't happy with the way i had it set up before, i went from 188 Watts per tank to 280 almost 100 watt gain per tank. i have one made and have one to go. when i make the second one up I'll do a little video of it. ;D
