We have these bulbs comming ,but it will be in a about 4 weeks or so .Yes ,the price will be high ,but they are better quality & special spectrum bulb with the added red ,I have seen these bulbs in germany they do look different than other bulbs on the market.
Also ATI is releasing the Super white Voll SPECKTRUM bulb soon ,which is the only bulb truly designed to grow corals,they have been trying many different K tempreture & Combinations.NOT EXACTLY SURE WHEN THEY WILL BE RELEASED ALBERT
However still very exciting stuff ,the T5 thec seem to be improving & many are keeping amazing tanks under T5 .
Look @ this one ,truly amazing
