Ordered My Lights

Wohoo oh yeah. I ordered my new lights today.. well half of them. I ordered the Ice Cap 250w HQI DE retro kit. I'll have to order the other one next month to stay on budget. But its a good start. Anybody have a good guess how much my electric bill is gonna jump after I fire theese babies up?

I ordered a tempered glass piece to cover my whole lighting set up after that from my local glass company and that worked great. __________________ *"To punish and enslave"*

If he got the Icecap pendant, it comes with the glass, so no worries there. __________________ My 135RR Tank build Upstate SC Reefers Unite!! Join the PMAC!
