I have a 28 gallon nano cube and the hid lamp went out a few days ago. Does anyone have one

for sale or knows of a store that I can buy one from in salt lake? It is a 28 gallon 150w HQI ballast. I found some on-line but its the weekend so they won't be here until sometime next week.please help.

thanks

Unsure,

If you need a list of local stores the site has one.... else if you want a guess and who I would call first...

try the Aquarium or possibly EliteAquatic (kinda doubt that one)....

The aquarium, aquatic dreams, bird world/pet village, or mountain shadow marine are the only ones I would think would be your best chance

give all the fish stores a call. I've seen some (unsure of wattage) at fish4u and I wouldn't doubt the aquarium carries them.

I have a ton of spare 150w double ended bulbs. They are all old, bit they should have enough life to get you until you can buy one. Free...located in south weber.
