No matter the cost of T-5,s they are cheaper than those stupid 65w compact actinics I just bought for my 150w fixture, which I,m going to run on the new tank. Sheez, $41 for a stupid 2ft. bulb. Guess I will be running them until burn out time.
Not my first choice. The 6 bulb Sunpower would have been. But not @ over six bills and costly bulb changes.
