KarenM Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Before I order online I thought I'd check. I'm looking for a Coralvue SE 250W MH 14000, and two 36" Aquasun daylight bulbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsr Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I have not seen many VHO bulbs in the local stores. Most dont carry them because they are slowly going away. I think AquaTek had some 3 or 4 foot bulbs a while back but I dont know about now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenM Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 Thanks, James, I'll order online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GKarshens Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Kingfish can get them for you. I got mine through them for about the same price as Marine Depot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsr Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Ohhh. Thats good to know Gabriel. I got mine for about $27 each, plus shipping. Good to know that someone has them local for about the same price. One LFS store (not a ARC sponsor) could get them but they were like $50 per bulb. Although, Karen, your bulbs are 3 feet where mine are 5 feet and will be cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenM Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 True, and you don't get a break on shipping bulbs, do you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsr Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Here is the Marine Depot shipping policy..."We can pack up to 6 lamps per box. Since fluorescent bulbs require special handling and packaging, we will only ship fluorescent bulb and power compact bulb orders of four or more bulbs free of shipping cost. 46.5" and longer bulbs are shipped free only if 6 or more bulbs are ordered. All 46.5" lamps and longer ship as an oversize package (30 lbs package). 30-day warranty." Sounds like if you order 4, you get free shipping. I think I paid $20 to ship all 4 of my 60"bulbs.

Looks like I'll be making a trip to Kingfish. Isn't that the one that doesn't have an actual store or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsr Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Yeah, I think you have to call them so they can meet you there. They do plan on opeing to the public but I dont know when. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
