champion lighting supply -anyone ever order ..

[Mike02]

from them before? they have a custom sealife PC15232ABS for $131. This is like $34 cheaper than anywhere else ive seen. This is lighting i wanna get for a 5 gallon tank. PC - 56 watts (even though CSL calls it 64 watts). Does it come with the bulbs? i guess i have to check with champion. heres the link i was looking at http://www.championlighting.com/cgi-bin/catalog.cgi

Mike,

I have dealt with Champion for a couple of years. I originally used them as a wholesaler, when I managed a couple small aquarium shops. During that time I had MANY orders with them, and always had good luck. I am out of the retail fish business now, but still an avid hobbyist. I still deal with Champion. I recently got some ligthing from them. They are a good company IMO. I have always had good service with them. If something is not right they will fix it, they stand behind their stuff! Maybe not always the quickest or the freindlist, but overall very good.

Yes that should come with the bulbs. That is a nice little hood!!!

Good Luck!

Yes I have.....great service!

I wouldn't hesitate to recomend them to anyone.

Same here. I have purchased several items from them including a VHO retro kit, skimmer etc.
No problems and good advice.

Another rec for Champion. Several purchases over the past 3 years. No problems.

Hi, I've spent litteraly thousands of dollars with them over the years. Hardly any problems and the one or two that I had were rectified to my satisfaction. They have been around for a long time in the scheme of things and definitely have good prices.

 

[Dawlfandav]

Yes, I have had good luck also. And right, they are one of the cheapest around.

I've also spent thousands with them on multiple orders. A+++++++! They are the best!!

IME, they are bitches on the phone. They also took over 2 weeks to ship my order out. Don't bother with them.

Premium Aquatics is much better IME.

I recommend them as well. Never had a problem and have made multiple orders. They have great prices on stuff too...

Thousands of dollars spent. No problems, great prices. Perry's not the warm and fuzzy type but he runs a good, fair business.
