My question is, has anyone added a second ballast to this fixture? If so, is there something else other than a WH5 I can use in there?
Even though I have a separate Odyssea fixture just for actinics, I would like to separate bulb sets in the Tek to have a better dawn/dusk effect. If I add the second ballast would the remaining WH be too much for the other two bulbs? I also thought of adding an IC430 remotely running 2 of the bulbs but I'm concerned about heat issues.

I didn't realize they were using WH's in the Tek fixture. You could use triads or Sylvanias in there
