Cheap MH bulbs on amazon

[jdavid]

Has anyone ever ordered the really cheap MH bulbs off amazon?

I'm considering it, not for any sort of display tank, more or less just to keep BTA happy in a propagation tank (which will likely be a Rubbermaid stock tank)

Just wondering what's in the drastic price difference. I can understand spending more for a pinpointed spectrum for corals/display tank

Is that all there is to it?

I'm happy with Plusrite 14k 250W double ended bulbs. BTA seems happy too. The same bulb in 10K looked really yellow though.

I bought 6 and needed 3 to start with. They're due to arrive on Monday. I actually got them for $9.50 each and free shipping.
