terminology

any one know the style of lighting with the pins in a square are called I apologize if the question is not clear the bulb is in a odyssea 260w 48" light fixture I am currently tryin to look for replacement bulbs and would like to know what the style is called

 

Type of Bulb: Straight Pin CF
It seems as though these bulbs are sold mainly on e-bay try contacting the person with this e store- maybe they can give you a specific bulb
eBay Seller: aquadeal: Pet Supplies, Gardening Plants items on eBay.com
(this is not an endorsement of this particular person but he does seem to have good feedback on his transactions)

 

You have straight pins and square pins so if yours are square than they are square pins. I agree with bouraganes, check ebay you'll get them allot cheaper.

also does anyone elses lighting start out a little dim in the middle then as it warms up comes on all the way

 

Dont think i've noticed that with my bulbs. Im running a coralife 2x65watts PC setup.
