Re: [GSAS-Member] Any place to get T5 bulbs locally?

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

I was able to get bulbs from Pacific Lamp and Supply in the SODO area. 
Nice folks.  Good prices.  I've done kelsun too like Dave mentioned.

I'm curious where folks get their reflectors and sockets for T5's.  I 
bought some from reefgeeks.com about a year and a half ago (see 
http://mystery.thekrib.com/T5 for an account of my hood conversion -- the 
tank has not improved since then...).  But curious if there are other 
reasonable sources.
