Would like to buy local

[MontanaBay]

Hi All,

Need to purchase a 36" Sundial T-5 HO 4x39watt fixture. I would like to buy from a local fish shop if possible and a BAR sponsor would be tops. Any leads would be be much appreciated!

Thanks,

Josh

Most Current products I've bought have been good. much better then the old Custom Sea Life stuff I must say, at least in terms of QA.

I am also a fan of the Sundial. I have the 48" 4x54w fixture. Love it ! Ordered from marinedepot.

The sponsors that I know carry Current products are Dophlin Pet Village, Aquarium Concepts and Ocean Treasures. If they are not close to you I would just call the closest sponsor and ask if they can get the light for you. I am sure they appreciate the support, times are tuff on LFS now.

I think Chris at Aquatic Central may carry Current too, but not sure.

Apon,

Thanks for the lead, I'll give them a call. I agree, I always have the urge to save a few bucks online, but then think about all the LFS that I've seen close or temporally shut down. I tell myself its like an investment in keeping those stores open because as much as I love tinkering with my tank, it is always fun to stroll through a LFS on a Sunday checking out fish and coral stocks, shooting the breeze with employees and customers, but if the doors don't stay open, that really can't happen.

When I lived in NH I always got a kick out of the Vermont cheese and maple syrup bumper stickers, "Be a Yokal, Buy Local!"

Cheers,

Josh
