Help Find Bulb for Coralife 20" Aqualight

[mapn4reef]

Where can I find a replacement bulb for this light fixture. It has a square pin base quad type lamp. I found some listed, but all out of stock. Are the bulbs not being made anymore or something? I'd like to have the 6,700K for a planted tank.

Try hellolights.com they carry them. I'm not sure of they have the 6700K though.

They DO have it!!! Thanks!!! However, it is $34 for the Hello brand and $43 for the Coralife brand. If you order the fixture you can get the replacement bulbs for $17...wish I could get that same price.

Hmmm, I may just sell the fixture and try to find a 20" T5 for reasonable, any good places to pick one of these up?

Have you called the critter or checked with any of the local chain pet stores? They keep bulbs in stock. It may be cheaper buying local.

The NEP is about the only thing in a 20" T5 right now. Only bulbs available in this size is the Current USA brand. They are OK but not near what you can get in the larger sizes. UVL is coming out with new bulbs in this size and supposedly Current is revamping these bulbs soon. If you can fit it, 24" is definitely the way to go as there is a ton of good fixtures and bulb choices.
