I've got 250W iwasakis and they've always been a bit on the yellow side without actinics. I have 2 40W actinics and I really like the look they add to the yellow. I don't know if I would put VHO on mine though. I think that would make it too blue, but thats just my preference. I would think with that much actinic though, Mason, you should see them pretty white/blue. Mine have been running for just over a year now and I'm gonna try to push them to two and see how it goes. It would be interesting to test them and see how much they have gone downhill though. Most people replace them after a year but I've heard of people pusing them to two. Do you have the "R" bulbs?? The non-R ones are pretty yellow compared to the R ones.
