440w VHO Setup for Sale! GA

This setup is about 5 months old, it's 4 VHO bulbs and 2 ballasts and all the required goodies.

Comes with:

2x VHO URI Super Actinics
1x VHO URI Aquasun 10K (3mos old) (pink hue)
1x VHO URI 50/50

2 ARO AS-220 Ballasts from Hellolights + the powercords.

4 Pairs of German Watertight endcaps + Mounting brackets.

I've used this setup to successfull grow SPS in a 75g aquarium. I'm getting out of the hobby because my college workload has gotten out of hand and I don't have time for my tanks right now.

I'd prefer to sell them locally, or within an hours drive. I'm located between Ausugta and Savannah.

I'll ship if I can't find anything local.

Asking $150.00

The Ballasts are VHO ARO 220
http://www.hellolights.com/22elarovhoba.html

As for how wide the lights or, I'm assuming you mean long? They are 46.5''. They are about a perfect 48'' with the endcaps.

Yes, length. I don't know what I was thinking when I asked how wide. Do they have the reflectors too? Where between Augusta/Savannah are you?

No, I didn't use a reflector, I was advise by some hobby "elders" to use a white painted hood as a reflect might rust. I don't know much truth there is to that, but white has served me well

Statesboro to be exact.

Well, I haven't heard anything from either of the other two that showed interest, let me check this them first and then I can let you know.

You can have the hood, but it's for a 40g L and it's just plywood painted white inside and black outside. I can even put a new coat on the outside. I started building it and never finished. The top isn't even screwed on since I was going to install 60MM fans.

Thanks for the reply guys. I guess I'm going to have to go out and find some boxes that these bulbs can fit into.
