Reeflux Discontinued?

I was shopping for new bulbs (400W MH) the last couple of weeks and hit a dead end on Reeflux bulbs. Have these been discontinued? It seems like less and less bulbs options are available these days.

Leds have hurt our bulb selection. I haven't used reeflux in years but I would just go to the source. Get in touch with coralvue.

No doubt and I'm still not 100% ready to make that switch. Lighting our 300g will be one heck of an expense. I opened up a dialogue with Coralvue and will post back here after they respond.

Consider switching to radium.

We had them before on when running 250's and wasn't thrilled with them. Considering the Reef Brite Twin-Arc 20/10's.

There are 400W in 10, 12 and 20k on ebay right now for about 60-70 bucks.

Hello Matt,

Sorry, the factory that manufactured the Reeflux lamps is no longer in operation due to a fire. Unfortunately we have been forced to discontinue offering these lamps.

Sincerely,
Chris Conti
