people are not understanding what a little more blue is for the AB's. befor everyone thinks that an 10K AB is blue let me state it isn't. it is more like a crisp white with no hint of yellow or green. the actual color temp for the AB works out to ~13000K where the SA 14K bulbs in my test were actualy around a 17000K color temp. so you can see the AB isn't blue but it does have just enuf blue in it to make your color in the tank POP with out making the tank look blue.
