I am overdue in replacing the bulbs over my tank. I need 4 x 96 watt PC square pin bulbs. I have 4 half and halfs right now but I am going to change to 2 10k and 2 actinics. Does anyone have a suggestion on where to buy from? There is a vendor on e-bay that has bulbs for 23.79 + 8.80 for shipping (any quantity). Here is the link.

This seems like a good deal to me. Any thoughts or suggestions? Any other places I should look at?

Can't speak for the bulbs, but have bought from that vendor and they treated me well.

I too have bought form that vendor and I have no complaints. I bought both PC and Halide bulbs from them.

Ok....I also am finding that the time is coming for new VHO bulbs. Any suggestions for those? I looked on ebay at that link above for VHO, but I can only find vho/Halide kits for like 500.00. All I need is 4 x 48" Actinic Vho ...(2 white, 2 blue). I did find a place online to buy em for about 20ish a bulb, however there is a minimum order required. Does anyone in the club (within driving distance of the dells) need any new VHO's? OR any suggestions for a good place to buy?

All suggestions are helpful
