grungefreek Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Hi Guys, This kinda goes out to all the planted tank people here in newy. I was wondering if there is any where in Newy where they sell 6500K compact flourescents. Bunnings have the 5000K versions, but so far I have been unable to find any 6500K versions. If anyone knows where to get some and an approximate price that would be excellent. Ok thanx GuysGrungie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 Hi GrungieI don't know where you will find one for sure but try Rovert Lighting. They helped me out with a 5foot tube once. They had to special order it but they were more than happy to help.Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

searlesy Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 I have some that I bought from the base warehouse in Wallsend, but they didnt last too long over a salt water tank. If you want something with a bit more grunt, you can get 130w and 65w Compact flouros that run off an E40 base for about $65 each, plus a one off payment of about $20 for the E40 base.
