rbaby Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Hey guys, For those MH Pendants...how do you keep the light from spilling over and blinding you nearby? If a MH pendant was next to your workstation, how do you keep the light from blinding you? I know that some pendants come with blinds but the ones I am looking at don't seem to have it, any thoughts? I'm trying to avoid a canopy because I don't want heat issues. Link to comment
FAC_WNY Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Install a couple of fans into your canopy and you want have to worry, rbaby.. I, too, hate the "light spill". Cheers, Fred Link to comment

bobioden Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 What kind of pendant are you using? I have a PFO pendant and the reflector aims the light in the tank and nowhere else. Bob Link to comment
rbaby Posted April 22, 2005 Author Share Posted April 22, 2005 I was looking into the Ocean HQI Aqua Medic one. Link to comment
fishwife Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I have that fixture. It's great, but you'll definitely need to do something to address this issue. The tank is in my living room, next to the couch. I have to put somthing on top of the tank (usually a shoe or whatever else is handy - not an elegant solution) to block the rays so I don't get blinded while watching TV. Here's hoping you get some good suggestions. Link to comment
