20000k halide bulbs?
 

Any recommendations for 20000k bulbs. I am replacing my current 14000k bulbs and I want more blue in the tank. Anyone have success or like a certain brand?

What wattage? for 400w, I think Radiums are the best you can get. The 250s seem to have a different color, I don't like them as much.

They are 250 watt DE bulbs

Not sure what's available. I know someone that tried the Ushio as replacements for the Phoenix 14k and hated them.

I used Geissman (spelling isn't right) 20k and found them quite nice.

Phoenix 14k are my fav HQI lamps!

They are much more blue (more like a 20k) on an electronic ballast.

I don't think they come in 250w de tho.. If they do.. GET THOSE :)

They sure do...

Phoenix 14K comes only in DE. I am using them on electronic ballasts and loving the color. I wish they come in SE also so I can use them on my other tank that only has SE fixture.
