 New Coralife Actinic BulbMay 16, 2012
By drewestate
I was a little skeptical about purchasing this item after reading only one other review for this item in which the user stated that the bulb they got was not actually any actinic bulb.
I am happy to report that after taking the plunge I am very happy with my purchase. I purchased the item via amazon prime and received a 36watt, straight 4pin Coralife branded bulb that is in fact the Full Actinic bulb. I am not sure what happened in the other review that said the bulb they received was not actually an Actinic bulb but that wasn't the case for me. For anyone who is wondering this is the replacement bulb used in the Biocube 29gallon stock hood, it fits and works perfectly. The bulb was also very well packaged by amazon in both bubble wrapping and lots of packing material protecting the bulb. I'll definitely be purchasing this item again in the future and appears to be the best deal around on these bulbs.
 Good bulb, wrong color!Jan 07, 2012

Okay, this is a first for me. I have purchased many coralife bulbs before and have had saltwater aquariums for 11 years, however, never had an issue like this with new bulbs. I got this bulb in, along with the 10k bulb from the same seller to replace the two bulbs that have blown on my minitank. The 10k is good. The actinic bulb arrived in the manufacturer box, but without the cardboard insert for protection. That wasn't a problem, bulb still works and Amazon packaged it great. Upon power-on, the bulbs had the exact same color! First thought was that there was a mixup, but the bulb said actinic too! Not sure what to do with this bulb now, so two stars because it works, but only two because the phosphor is obviously not actinic.
