Group Buy T5 Teck Lights

[Pufferpunk]

I've got 3 folks (that includes me) interested in buying lights from this company: http://sunlightsupply.com/aquarium/products/lighting_fixture.shtml

I can probably get about 20% off the lights & get 5 shipped for $50. The bulbs come seperately, so you have to pick them out individually. If you just need bulbs, that's ok too.

Do they have the URI bulbs?

 

[Pufferpunk]

I already gave you the link to the site to look through, but here are the bulbs they have: http://sunlightsupply.com/aquarium/products/fluorescent_lamps.shtml#fl_lamps_atiblue

Do you have pirces for the bulbs? I already have the fixture.

 

[Pufferpunk]

ykh, Which bulbs are you interested in?

 

[Pufferpunk]

Since their prices will be going up 5-10% as of July 1st, we must get this ordered before the end of this month!
Just to give you an idea, this is what I'm ordering:

48", 6-bulb = $261.25 ($52.74 less than Specialty Lights "sale" price)
1 Giesemann Midday, 54W @ $16.38/ea = $16.38 ($10.58 less than
Specialty
Lights)
1 Giesemann Pure Actinic, 54W@ $22.13/ea = $22.13 ($7.83 less than
Specialty Lights)
2 Giesemann Aquablues, 54W @ $18.44/ea = $36.88 ($17.03 less than
Specialty Lights)
2 Giesemann Actinic Plus, 54W @ $17.75/ea = $35.50 ($14.40 less than
Specialty Lights)
+ Shipping = $10.00
Total = $382.13
Specialty Lights Sale price = 439.99
(Total is $92.77 less than Specialty Lights individual component prices
and $57.87 less than their current price for the fixture w/ bulbs.

If you want the cable hanging kit, acrylic shields or other item, let
me know.

Bump

Do you know which bulb is better? the Giesemann or the ATI, from my search, it seems like more people are using ATI.

 

[Pufferpunk]

I have heard that the Giesemann are excellent bulbs. You could ask here: http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=7619293#post7619293

I really need to know by tommow!

 

[ykh]

I will pass for now. I will wait till I get my tank set up first. Thanks for the offer.

 

[Pufferpunk]

I can still get the bulbs (or fixtures) at any time. Just won't be sharing shipping--that's all.

 

[Pufferpunk]

Anyone else? I am waiting for 1 guy to decide on a 4 or 6-bulb system & then will put in the order for us.

 

[aiko670]

I can't seem to find VHO's? I'd be interested in 2-46.5" Super Actinics.

 

[Pufferpunk]

Dunno about VHOs. These are T5s:

[newnano]

im interested in getting a bulb in the order if people are ordering bulbs

 

[newnano]

where would everyone be meeting to pick their stuff up?

 

[Pufferpunk]

My home, in Franklin Park, IL (near Ohare). Any bulb order (listed on that site), no matter how small, is fine. Ignore tne prices on that site.
