well i just received my new(I think) aqua medic ocean pendant light from marinedepo.com. The reason I say "I think" is because a couple of the boxes looked like they been used before, it didn't come w/ an instruction manual(which I think it supposed to) and one of the hanging sockets looks slightly different then the other. The equipment itself looks bran new, or perhaps returned....
But that's another story... to get to my question:
My question is about the specific light that came with this product. It's the 250w 20k AB double ended bulb. There seemed to be a cloudiness and almost rust/burnt color to the middle of the bulb when i turned it on the first time. Is this normal for hqi lights? Or should it always be clear? This is my first experience w/ MH.
here are pics:
also 2 little pieces of white ceramic came off the light on both ends. will this be a problem?
