Suggestions on bulb for clam tank.

[LotR Clown]

I'm currently running 250w hqi SE XM's 10000k. I'd like a little more blue, but not too much blue. I'm wondering if anyone could suggest a bulb that would give me a little more blue with decent par. The tank is 48x18x13. I used to use it as a frag tank, but now I wanna turn it into a clam tank. I'm running dual 250s on pendants and miss the flouresence of actinic supp. I just don't like 20k false blue. Is the par rating on the 15000k xm any good?

TIA

Kevin

Why not switch to the 250watt Phoenix 14,000K bulb. The 14k will be a little more blue than your 10,000K and you'll still get good growth....

gsm you like ushio better than pheonix? I've heard good things about pheonix. I used to use ushio 10k but went to xm and liked them better.
