    Default vho lighting?

    I was wondering if anybody knew about using vho lighting that is designed for something other than aquariums. I have an opportunity to buy some vho lighting at a lighting distributor for cost. I was wondering if the ballast for this would be the same-or could run lights for an aquarium? I obviously know very little about this.

    Yes it will be the same as most reef ballast except maybe for IceCap
    witch will overdrive most lamps.
    high output ballast or rated by the feet of lamps more thin the number
    or wattage

    Icecap or Fulham Workhorse ballasts will fire them with no effort.
    Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free.
