Default Refugium lights,HELP

So after about 10 years combinrd in this hobby,i finally bought a refugium.But it only came with an 18 watt light.Does anybody know where i can get a higher wattage ballast on the internet.I have heard some people can get them from home depot but i dont see them there.And no it is not CPR refugium.I keep seeing them for the cpr but none that are similar to the one that came with it.

Here are some DIY items at MarineDepot.

What size refugium is it?

BTW.......

Here is a local resource that might have some stuff you might be interested in.

Cultivated Coral

The owner is a really nice guy and has great prices and rare coral.

His name is Nick DeBellis

Only down the road from you too, he is in Wellington and accepts pick ups.

Thanks for the hook up dude,I dont think he is in the phone book thought so if you could get me the number or tell me exactly where he is.But with the lights i am just looking for like a 12" wide and about 36 to 58 watts,or i would like about a 9" wide light at that wattage but cant seem to find them.

This is the light I am using: 12 inch 2x18 Watt Current USA PowerCompact Dual Satellite Fixture

Just change the actinic bulb out for another dual daylight and your in business!

I do have Nick's cell phone #: +1.516.659.1584

It's a NY # (516 instead of 561).
