Atlanta Light Bulbs has the GE 45859 9325K 55W CF lamp (aka Aqua Rays Fresh & Saltwater) for $17.95 each. Anyone know of a better deal? Thanks!

Thats the best deal I've ever found yet. Searched a lot of places when I bought mine, and that was still at $17 back then.

Not the bulbs you are looking for but check the prices:

Thanks, guys. I doubted that I'd find a better deal.

And thanks Nikolay for the heads up on the Ebay bulbs...that's the best price I've ever seen for 55W 10000K CF's!

I would be more concern with

They might end up giving you a 10k bulb if they don't have GE 9325k bulb in stock.

the owner seems like an honest guy. He knows why people want THAT particular bulb and doubt he'll pull a fast one. Just ask if he has them.

I have two out of four in my 75gal. and am thinking of replacing w. regular 6500k's like the other two. I just don't see as good as plant growth under them comp. to the 6500's...at least that's what I 'think' I'm seeing so far.

Also, green plants do better under the 6500 and the red plants are supp. to do better w. the 9325, but then you're limiting your aquascape and plant placement dependent on bulb position which I'm not to keen on either.

Just thinking about it now

Chris
