Hey guys,
I recently purchased a Zoo Med Aquasun T5 HO fixture. It was making an audible buzzing noise (sounds like a noisy balast buzz), so I returned it to my LFS in exchange for another one, and it seems even louder! It's louder than my HOT Magnum filter. I took it in to the LFS and we opened up two other fixtures and they made the same noise. It was hard to hear in the store, maybe because of the ambient noise.
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else had any experience with T5 HO fixtures and could fill me in about your experience with the buzzing noise.
Could it be poor quality electricity or anything like that?
