If that is the quad style you may be a bit off on pricing. J&L sells the Coralife for $52.50. And yes I am interested, but not at that price.

These bulbs are much better quality than the coralife bulbs they will replace.
I have heard the Coralife bulbs are very yellow when light up next to these bulbs.

That is not true really. I have the Coralife, and the colour is quite nice. I am supplementing with a Sunpac 32W 50/50 bulb, and that really makes the colour outstanding. Even by itself the colour is a purplish blue. And yes CSL has been out of business for quite awhile.

I also have the Coralife unit, but I have read that head to head or really side by side, the coralife is really yellow.

Does it matter if CSL has been out of business for 3 years? The fact that these bulbs must be brand new old stock is really all there is to think about.

I thought this was the Buy/Sell/Trade forum. Not the "foul up the other guy's sale" forum.
