Nice price on MH bulbs

[Youngsilver]

ok so the update on the "reefmax bulbs:

I got them yesturday. They are actually "Agromax" brand.I just fired them up, and they are stunningly pretty especially for the price! The color is slightly white/blue'er then my old wore out ushios I used to use while being way better then the PLUS brand cheapo lights. I really liek them

The only spectral analysis i found was a test on a 250 watt 20k. found here:

Here is its chart.

They seem seem to come in 175 250 400 and 1000 wattages. The 175 is offered in a10k and 20k
250 watt is offered in 10k 14k and 20k

I believe the auction name is for this guy is kmtbm, I would try a search on the actual agromax name first though bc i bet you that they' re like 10-20$ Or try your local agro store

I highly recomend these bulbs so far

Interesting. Have you noticed any side effects of the new bulbs? Your poor corals are probably so used to those old 20Ks they might get burned on the new ones.

I burnt in those Venture bulbs and they look much better. I think I also had to get used to more blue as I had hamilton 10ks.
