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

TIA

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

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