Screw the sponsor. Someone contact them and start a thread with an under cover name. Lol why didn't the sponsors get mad for wp40 group 1-4. Brs group buy. Wyoming white group buy. Etc.

Cause they weren't carrying that at the time. As much as we hate news like this, this is a business aside from an educational forum. And shenanigans. Well not as much from now on. I gave myself a warning the other day.

Why don't we pick a sponsor store and do our group buy through them ... giving our locals guys support and hopefully get a nice discount in the process?

I totally agree that it is all business. I was just kidding when I said screw sponsors. Ill say my bad but not sorry since I have a few unhappy people. If the site wanted to they could get rid of all group buys since everything will always have conflict with a sponsors product.

+1 to cody's idea. I'm in for 4-6 bulbs.

Or everyone can contact chanceofcoral. There's some sort of %25 off thing going on. Hope I don't get a warning for advertising for the above seller.

I know reefgeek will do a group buy for bulbs. The more you buy the bigger the discount

I think it's like 15% off if we buy more than 24 bulbs

I heard about no tax at MD. But when I did will call they said they had to tax me. So it wasn't too cheap. I'm due to change most of my 8 bulbs. Its going to hurt.
Ive never had t5s before but I thought you were supposed to replace them 2 at a time. Not all at the same time because it would shock the coral? Anyone hear this or am I wrong?

Ya I have 4 bulbs and every few months I replace 1. Works out pretty good. Corals never get shocked and I've always got new bulbs.

That's why forum are good. Saved all my coral. Lol. I wasn't aware but I usually do 2 at a time. Last time I did 3 since 3 went out from me wobbleing the light.
