Cheapest T5 Ho's I Can Get For Freshwater

[hunter001]

Just taken delivery today of a luminaire for my tank for a very good price. Only problem is it was used for a marine tank, so im in need of some more natural freshwater lighting. The bulbs are 54W T5 HO's, i know im not going to get them really cheap but im just looking for the cheapest place to get them.

Thanks

Any paticular tubes you could recomend? Im looking to get the tank nicely planted up, the luminaire is 4 x 54w tubes so i could get a mix of tubes in there maybe?

120x45x55 roughly i think , maybe upping that soon just need to twist the other halfs arm. I just want to get it nice and bright in there with some serious plant growth, im ordering a Co2 setup this week hopefully and will be adding that before i put the new luminaire on the tank. Using diy Co2 at the moment but it just doesnt cut the mustard with a tank this size
