Hello everyone I am new to this app as well as new to the fish world. :-) So please bare with me! So I recently bought the tank and it came with this CorALife light and it has 4 broken wires. I recently rewired it and I got it to work. But only the blue middle light turned on and were working fine. I took out the non working bulbs and they seem to be burnt. I want to know where to buy them? Also one of the sides is missing the ballast unless it comes like that. But I wouldn’t know because this is my first tank and I’m just trying to fix the light because my friend told me it’s very expensive to buy a new light of those.

The picture that has a red arrow pointing to it is where it’s missing the other balllast. Please help, I appreciate it!

I don't know if it is missing but that's a old light.
MH lights are great lights but they generate a LOT of heat into the tank.
Results are that you have to work with cooling fans or a chiller.
Some ppl remove the MH and replace them with LED's.
