    uncle doesnt know if they carry them.

    Also would I be fine with using the stock bulbs for awhile?

    New bulbs would double the cost of the light and I don't have $200 right now actually not even $110.00 but hopefully will soon.

    in experience with their MH lighting the stock bulbs will be ok for awhile. they tend to burn out earlier and fade faster than brand name bulbs

    Arrowhead Crabs are cool I had one they eat worms like crazy, but they can kill fish & other live stock. They use their point head as an arrow/spear to kill their prey. So caution....
