Well its taht time again and we all know how expensive MH bulbs can be...im looking for some good prices that will givem e good color and growth from the lights. I have 250w DE bulbs really looking for a good blue color bulb at a great price...anyone know where i can manage to find these good priced bulbs? Im really looking into leds but i dont know, so please help me find some good bulbs!
 
IMO you will not be sorry for switching to LED's and neither will your electric meter. There are many examples of beautiful reef tanks under LED's
reefledlights.com
 
Phoenix is the best "blue" DE bulb in my opinion. And not too expensive.
 
Marine Depot usually has good prices for phoenix bulbs. Or see if sexy corals has any in stock since they are having a 10% off sale!

I get my MH bulbs off aquatraders.com There would be a lot that say against it im sure but I have a par meter in the house so I know what these bulbs put out and it is right up there with other more expensive bulbs. At 10$ a bulb(when I buy 4) I could switch them out 4 times a year(both 250w bulbs)if I wanted for less than what some people pay on 1 bulb. The color is good with me for the price and the growth I get is great!
