I actually had a discussion with Kim Bryant about them, and he brought up a point I never thought of... He said if you can buy them locally, it's great. But shipping costs are HUGE in comparison to CF... I think he said something like 4x as much to ship a single tube. As a result, he's made a business decision not to carry them. Not that that has anything to do with how well they work, but I thought it was interesting. :-) Karen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Erik Olson" <erik@thekrib.com> To: "Aquatic Gardeners Association Board" <aga-sc@thekrib.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2007 5:20 PM Subject: Re: [AGA-sc] NEC > On Tue, 27 Feb 2007, David Lass wrote: > >> If anyone is interested, I can bring some T5's and talk a little on why >> they are so much better than Power Compacts.
