Default Bulb replacement

Hi all...I've had my 110 gal reef setup for a year now and I'm sure its time for bulb replacement. I have a Coralife PC with two white and two actinic bulbs. Do I just need to replace the white bulbs or the actinic, too? Also, who has best prices for bulbs??? Drs. Foster? Thanks!

Scott its best to shop around for best prices, sometimes your LFS will have the best price, sometimes not. If the actnic bulbs are still producing light then they should hold up longer. Order replacements to have on hand in case they should go out.
