Where do you buy your ATI BULBS???

[Rob&Gab]

was wondering where you guys get your bulbs from? if it was online or at a pet store, how much are the bulbs you get? also what type of bulb setup do you have? cause i was looking to buy some ATI bulbs, looks like no one has any?

Online typically $20 for 24 watts, free shipping from DRSFOSTER I think... otherwise Champion lighting has them and the bulbs get to NYC In 1 day. Otherwise I just get them at Manhattan Aquariums for $5 more than online which I think is completely fair.

well they were 27-28$ for a ATI 48" blue+ bulb witch is a little to pricey for me when i went to Manhattan aquariums, but there located in a high end area for rent.

and i tried coral theory and they want same price and figi purple 48" was 31$ i think .

Aquarium Village is carrying them for 19.99-22.99$, Just they don't have the ones i need right now witch sucks cause we need to switch out 2 bulbs that are dead beat right now. :/

My brother-in-law gets them from Foster and Smith or Amazon. Just need to know which one you need and enter it word for word on Amazon when ordering. Not like I ordered a bulb for him and got the wrong one... :smash:

I got mine from Tito Gotham-aquatics.
With a Frag Swap coming up, you can get another 10% off.
Or BRS same price, but you have to pay for shipping.

+1 on Gotham Aquatics (Tito).

Not sure if he still does it but he use to make deliveries to Queens every other week or so. I ordered from him several times with no issues.
