Anyone ever use them? I'm sort of inna bind and these bulbs are the only ones our LFS sells. I'm looking at the 50/50 & 20k to replace my ATI special & blue plus. Would they be ok until I can order the ATI's from online?

Have you checked to see if the LFS can order the ATI bulbs for you? If they can include them with a regular order you might be able to save a few $ on shipping.

Yes I have Tom. They can't. I have been saving my old bulbs and was able to replace the one that burned out.
I'm trying to hold out for when I buy all 4 at the same time. I only buy once a year.

i have used them before miz and they would be fine for a in a pinch use or emergency use but not much else

I wouldn't expect good coral growth or color out of them

Thanks Taz. More or less what I figured.
