My brand new t5 fixture is making a buzzing noise. One side seems to be worse then the other. My other fixture is dead silent. They also seem to be better when cool and then they gradually get louder. Anyone know if it’s something with the ballast not maybe the bulbs? Also could someone tag an aquatic life rep. Maybe there is something I did wrong on the install.

Sounds like a bad ballast to me. I would contact AquaticLife directly or the place you purchased it from for help.
