inTank Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 inTank now is stocking UV Lighting PC-R bulbs! We have all options in 18W and 24W now! We are waiting on the 50/50 and Actinic bulbs for the 36W option. Those may be in 2-3 weeks. http://shop.mediabaskets.com/PC-R-Bulbs_c52.htm Link to comment
Red Sea Reefer Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Total noob here. Will these work in a RSM 130? Btw just ordered your media basket and various other items. Thanks. Link to comment
inTank Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 The versions we sell will not fit in the RSM. If you wanted another version of bulb a 65W PC will fit in there but you will loose power even with a reflector built in. The RSM bulbs are so unique since they are T5 in size but use a PC connection for power. I would stick with the stock bulbs. Red Sea is one company that actually got them correct from the start. The only thing better would be upgrading the entire fixture. http://shop.mediabaskets.com/Red-Sea-55W-D...lb-RS-40251.htm inTank you for your order Link to comment
Red Sea Reefer Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Thanks for the response. I had two replacement RSM bulbs on my order. Just picked up a 1 year used 130D for $300. I'm debating the tunze skimmer upgrade as I would like to upsize to the RSM 250 or New S series if I like the hobbie half as much as I think I will. Link to comment
inTank Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 Great Price! I would go with the Tunze for now. The 250 is a really cool tank but with a larger size comes more expense. Everyone is always upgrading so it is inevitable. Link to comment

Mustang Boy Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I am curious, is there any chance you will start to carry the 18in T5HO UVL bulbs? Link to comment
inTank Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 In the future we probably will start to carry the T5HO UVL bulbs. Right now I am just trying to get all the PCs in as these are special made for our nano tanks. I will put them on the next order with ULV Link to comment
basser1 Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Any updates on the 50/50 36 watt bulbs?? Link to comment

drewbold Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 my stock bulb just burnt out and the LFS wants $48.50 for a replacement, hope these come in soon Link to comment
StevieT Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 You and me both.... Ouch, we sell the stock ones for about $20. I sent an email late today, will keep you informed Link to comment
StevieT Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 We are expecting delivery of them next week or soon after. Our inter-source manufacture is closed for the holidays and I will be able to get an exact answer on Jan. 3rd 2012. I will email you as soon as I know more. Link to comment
JoeyG40c Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Cant wait for these 50/50s aleady. Im dying here man. Link to comment
Formula462 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 my stock bulb just burnt out and the LFS wants $48.50 for a replacement, hope these come in soon DAMN man. They are like 24 dollars in my store. ( the store i work at, it's not mine......yet) Link to comment
drewbold Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 thanks for the update, I will be keeping my eye peeled! I felt kind of bad at the LFS since they have to get you the bulbs at the register, he told me the total and I laughed in his face and said I can get 2 of them online for that price, sorry. Then I promptly left the store. His clownfish are like $250 each. So more InTank business for you guys Link to comment
Puppet Pal Clem Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I am for sure interested in getting a pair of the 36w bulbs, seems like a cost effective upgrade. Link to comment

We all can purchase from similar vendors and you don't even have to purchase in huge qty orders to get good pricing. But the strong survive and I am pretty good at purchasing and inventory management from another job. I have a LFS around here, well actually a few that sell a Koralia 750 for almost $70. Yeah you have different overhead than me but when you don't sell any you really can't pay many bills with inventory on the shelf gaining days. More inTank business is what I like to hear thanky Link to comment
drewbold Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Its a bit past the 3rd and still no update or e-mail =( Link to comment
inTank Posted January 9, 2012 Author Share Posted January 9, 2012 Nothing yet It's hard for them to give exact lead time with manufacturing over seas, shipping and holidays. Link to comment
basser1 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Kinda looks like the same run-around Nano-Tuners was getting from UVL. Link to comment
StevieT Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 no kidding.......... another call and email sent to UVL will post whatever they come back with. Makes me really second guess selling these things if it's going to be like this all the time. Link to comment
StevieT Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 From UVL- We are receiving a stock truck today or Monday. They should be on this container, but not guaranteed. More as I know... More as I know seems to be the standard answer, but it always takes an email or call to get that info. So we are hoping for early next week then, hope that brings new excitement to your Friday.

kj23502 Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Thanks for the quick reply on the email. Will be watching for the bulbs! Link to comment
