Help with MH lighting.

I run a DE HQI phoenix 14K bulb in my tank and was thinking of purchasing a reeflux 12K.

Does anyone use the reeflux 12K? Any pics?

What dont you like about the Phoenix 14k? And what ballast are you running it off of?

I like the phoenix 14K but was wondering how the reeflux 12K looks. I've been hearing good things but I don't know if it's a better bulb then the phoenix.

I have the stock ballast that came with my system. Ocean Light Aqua Medic Pendant, I'm pretty sure it's a magnetic ballast. I have the 250W pendant.

Thats a good ballast, its an HQI ballast. I have those lights as well. Those ballasts make the phoenix much brighter then other type of ballasts.

Was just curious as to what you were running. I've never run the reflux.

Why not run the reeflux?

Here is a thread that I found that has pics of the same tank under different bulbs.
