Have 120g with mostly SPS and running 175mh SE with 10K bulbs and 110 vho atinics.

Would DE 250W 20K bulbs be better then my current set up for SPS growth and looks?

My corals just don't look as colorful as compared to when they were in the shallower 75g tank.

I would change over to the 250-W bulbs. I think you will be happy that you did. It would make a difference.

If you can find a 20k 250w mogul that has enough par for your SPS, let me know! I've not seen it.

They are widely available in 14,000K, and I'd think that would be all right for you.

Yea, you let me know too. I guess that is why I asked about the 20K DE Bulb. I guess if you are going to be a smart *ss, you should read the whole post.

Thanks for the help.

Any post to DE bulb test results?
