Different colours of good old fluorescent tubes in the hardware (chain) stores. Only white in different types available, these days.
Twelve years ago, you could still get blue ones and others.
The funny thing is, that the regular tubes (energy class "G") are still cheap. You can get one for 5 bucks!
The more expensive ones for 15+ bucks are special models for aquarium or terrarium and they got a higher energy-efficency (class "B").
But who cares for the price? The good old tubes just last so long. Like I said before, my first one lasted 9 years! The actual one is working since more than 3 years.
