I am new here, so "Hello". I had planted tanks 10 years ago and then stopped, and now just getting back into it. I bought a compact flourescent light fixture on ebay, and it has 4 bulbs in it.
One of the bulbs stopped working, I think it burned out cuz the end of it is black. Then again, it looks like a wire is hanging out too. Hmmm.
How do I get the bulbs out of it? I'm afraid of breaking it. It's not like a shoplight where you just turn the bulbs and they come out. Here's my fixture:http://www.ebay.com/itm/48-Aquarium-...item3f0e127271
BTW I'm running 2 6700k bulbs and 2 bulbs that came with it "T5 HO 54W 12000k". I dunno what those are (for reefs?) Is this a good set up?

I have 2 2 liter bottles and used silicon tubing, and spliced them together with a 3 way valve. Then I hooked it up to a Red Sea CO2 reactor 500. It's been 24 hrs and I see no bubbles, the soda bottles look "flat". I used 2 c sugar, 1/4 tsp yeast and water. I checked for leaks near the seal on the soda cap using soapy water. nothing. I siliconed the crap out of those holes I drilled.
