strip lights...

[calivivarium1]

So I am looking for some 24" dual strip lights for cheap but I have yet to find any. ANyone know of a hardware chain/box store that carries them? I really don't want anything fancy(or anything with a mark-up simply because its meant for aquariums), simply something brown or black that can house two 24" fixtures(maybe I could even get by with one...). I have checked out walmart and target so far, but I can only find bulbs or 48" strip lights...

the 24" ones are hard to find... try ace hardware or home depot

most shop lights are 48".. But the DO make 24" lights its just a matter of finding them lol

I bought my 48" strip lights at Lowe's. Like mentioned that is a common size. I'm not sure about the 24" ones. You may have to hunt around for them.

Thanks again, I found a dual 24" t-5 setup at Lowes today, but unfortunately the bulbs sit on the outside of the unit and I would have to DIY a hood. I think I will just go with a dual coralife one off ebay or something....
