    hey, i am taking my old light fixture i had for my 29G to use for my 10G at school..
    however, this lightfixture is at least 2 years old and bulbs have not been changed since i bought it.

    this means that i need to buy new bulbs correct?

    if so, can someone point me to the right website i can get them at?

    I would buy some new bulbs, you can go to almost any fish store site, and pick them up, i get mine from reefgeeks.com, theres marinedepot.com, fostersandsmith.com just to name a few of the thousands!

    hmm...could this be why you were having troubles with your coral in your 29g? ::) haha.

    Those bulbs should have been replaced 1 yr ago. +1 to above.

    OK, I was thinking you were taking the fixture that is currently on your 29g, to use for your 10. I got all mixed up! ::)
