Seen in Canada?
 
Anyone know of a Canadian distributor for these?

Try calling Marine Aquarium @ 780-660-1470
They are suppose to handle sales in Canada for Lumenarc lighting.

Saw that, but was hoping to creep around a web site first :)

is that not just a standard Lumenarc mini? If so I bought mine at JL.

It's a standard lumenarc 3 mini, but I didn't see any at J&L yesterday. They have an Elite, which is similar, but more money and a hammertone finish (which I might use anyway if I can't find one of these)

sphelps 12-30-2010 06:24 PM

The hammertone is suppose to be better, for convenience that might be better, you'll have to pay shipping from other places anyway.

my thoughts exactly, although the J&L unit is a few bucks more. But probably works out the same in the end...

They were not listed when I bought them either. I just asked Jeff if he had any and he said yes, and sent one. :smile:

Hmm, I talked to Jeff yesterday and we compared them. The 2 used units I just bought actually came from Jeff originally, and he got them from Pacific Garden Supply.

Ya, I think I was gonna take a couple, then ran out of money :) Where did you order them from?

muck 12-30-2010 10:28 PM

Direct from Pacific Garden Supply.

You had to order a bunch I recall. I'm probably better off just getting the Elite from J&L

Check with Marine Aquaria out in Edmonton maybe. Send Lando a PM.

Lando no longer works for Marine Aquaria.
You can contact Harvey (Mr_Alberta) instead.

Aquattro 12-31-2010 05:00 AM

I sent an email to them, we'll see what they have to say. If not, I'll go with the Elite, it seems close enough to the minis.

Good to know!

StirCrazy 12-31-2010 02:23 PM

stay away from hammer tone finnish, not what you want in your tank.

thats something a guy who has been using T5's would buy so the light is a bit difused and won't shock him to much :mrgreen:

seriously though hammer tone was used to get better dispersion but at the cost of strenght.. moderen reflectors are much more advanced in the dispersion than when we were making our own reflectors so that hammer tone isn't realy required anymore.
