What 10k bulb shall i choose?

[njfish77]

Well i have the aqualight 250w DE pendant and im using the 14k pheonix bulb. Honestly i dont see a difference from my 20k XMs. Im going to be using atinic supplements with my new tank and i was wonder what 10k DE bulb looks good with Atinic supplement and a magnetically driven ballast??

I would suggest the 10k blv or 14k pheonix if you want a white bulb

I use the Ushio, which is pretty yellow, but balanced against 2 actinics, it shows nice color, at least to my taste. If you like more blues, I'd use a different bulb.

10K Ushio. Nice bulb, lasts long time!

1000k or 12000k reeflux by coralvue.You will get the best growth and by far the best color with out running T5's or VHO's.You can take a LOOK at my gallery and see what you think.

i would go with a Aqualine 10k actually burns at 13k. I run on a 55 gallon tank and get great colors from corals.
