If #1 is the top bulb, and #6 the bottom..

#1,3,4,6 are all KZ Coral Lights
#2 are Fiji's

You'll notice the top 2 Coral Lights are really dim. I've noticed this for a bit now (no matter the bulbs I put in there), they are always dimmer like that, only partially lit. Those same 2 bulbs in my Tek fixture light up like the bottom 2 Coral Lights (4&6).

Is this something simple or do I have a bad ballast?

Thanks,
PW

PS I didn't realize the mirror I used there to take the picture was THAT dirty. heh.

Hi PW,

Typically if its a bad ballast the bulbs will not fire at all, so I suspect you have something else going on. Please call me at toll-free at 866-295-9230, so we can trouble-shoot this with you.

In the future, please call us toll-free at 866-295-9230 or email us at service@reefgeek.com with any service issues as we don't check the RC forums on a regular basis.


Warmest Regards,
Greg @ ReefGeek
