bulb keeps blowing out!!!!!

[lalarn]

Please Help!!!

I have a 29gallon nano for over a year. Recently the bulb has been blowing out and I have been replacing it. Now when I turn the switch on the canopy next to the 2 LED lights no light comes on. The fan inside is running though. Do I need to replace the ballace?

Im having the same issue.

Im having someone look at the wiring as the person who I bought it from installed an extra fan. Im hoping thats the solution.

I just found that one of my lights was not out, but that the prongs/plug end of it was corroded. cleaned it off and put it back in and it worked.

the other,...still blown, bought a new one.
if it keeps blowing, check the ballace, might be corroded and getting too hot

Thanks for the advice. Do you have a certain site you would suggest to buy a ballace?

I just ordered a bulb from Drs. Foster & Smith.
I trust them...as for a ballace...Im not sure where to pick them up from, you can see if Drs. Foster & Smith has them.
