The phoenix 14k lamps seem very popular. That is what I will be trying next time I re-lamp.

ya i been hearing a lot about those bulbs, they have a nice blue to them, but J&L don't sell those? if they do its not on the site.. what would you get from J&L

You could get them from Ocean Aquatics, they are also a sponsor here. Unless you have a reason you need to order from J&L.
