I had a problem with my 6gallon marineland light fixture it stops working. I changed the light bulb but still would not work. I opened the light fixture and discovered that there's this bulb of light thats blown out, it looks like the light bulb that u see in christmas lights, the one that will make the light blingks. Anyways I dont know where i can get one of these lights I think this is the starter. Help on how to fix. Do you all have any suggestions? I was planning on increasing the light anyways but dont have any clue on what type of safe light to use...

Hi wwh2694,

Here is the link to Marineland Customer Service. I have used them in the past, they are excellent and will probably be able to help.

Can you take some pictures of the canopy, fixture and the light bulb you're referring to? Or bring it to the next meeting.

That is very strange. It looks almost like a gas arc light like metal halide or halogen. Maybe it's just the picture. You can bring it to a meeting and I can look closer, but you might either have to contact Marine Land or replace it with a new fixture altogether unless you can match the bulb style exactly.
