Wiring a new ballast

[jcm707]

Not sure where to post this but I recently got a JEBO tank and the ballast needs to be replaced and I've never wired anything before. Anyone here good at wiring that can help me out with this? There's more wires on the old ballast than the new one that jebo recommended replacing it with.
Here's pictures of the new ballast and of the stock setup still on it. Not sure where to start. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Black = supply hot
White = supply neutral
Yellow = goes to sockets on one end, add a jumper between sockets
Red = goes to the sockets on the other end.

That's the fun part IMO! Also a voltage meter comes in handy to make sure power is going thru the correct wires BEFORE plugging in!

Thanks man but I'm still a little lost. What's a jumper? Also what's supply hot and supply neutral mean?

Supply hot & neutral either splices straight to power cord or hot from power cord goes to one side of switch supply hot fro ballast the other side. Either way neutrals just splice. A jumper is a wire linking to 2 sockets.
