P.C. replacement lamps
 
Can anyone recomend a source for P.C. lamps, other than Coralife. The "usual" on line suppliers are all Coralife... :sad: .
AH Supply is an option, but it's "States-side"... :sad:

TIA

are you using quad or strait pin? personaly i hate my pc lights but i swicthed to iridius 10k's and they seem ok. id buy whats on sale, they ain't much diffrence on the bulbs i don't think.

Yup. I got a 96w Panasonic 10000k from Jack @ OA & boy is it bright. My clams love it :biggrin: Seahorses, not so much :cool: They now hide in the cave or under my 14" LTA :eek:

They can also order in German bulbs at very good prices. (& I'm not just posting this because I work there P/t either.) :lol: Like Willow said, check out the website.
