Hey guys, I am getting ready to order a 250w mh retrofit to go in a G.C. hood. Anyone have any reccomendations on any one in particular? Looking at hello lights, hamilton right now. Probably going to run a DE xm15k. I like my tank to look more blue than most people. I'm all ears.
 
After reading for a while last night I don't think it will be an xm de bulb. It seems that candle light might be more powerful. Maybe a phoenix 14k.
 
the last DE 250w bulb I ordered was the Phoenix 14k after reading a lot of reading in different forums. Of course after that I completely changed my mind and went T-5 completely. But I agree the phoenix 14k would be a very good bulb and still have some blue, alto I did use actinic supplement with it.
