VHO Bulbs

[Prater]

I have 4 VHO bulbs running over my 75 that need to be replaced. What is the recomendation on the URI bulbs nowadays. I was running two actenic, 10k Aquasun, and a Super Actenic. I dont want to change over to MH or T5 at the moment.

I run 3 Super Actinic & 3 Actinic White over my 58. The 50/50 combo is nice, but gives off a pink hue at times. Never tried the Aquasuns, but have heard they are too intense.

Coralife rep is sending me 3 actinic 03s and 3 daylights to try, I'm curious how the Coralife VHO stands up to the URI. Biggest drawback off the bat is no internal reflector. I'm getting a reflector from them as well though. I'll let you know how the Coralife's look. Other drawback is the distribution on them is almost nil.
