I guess I am in the minority here, but I plan on switching back to 250 watt iwasaki's with heavy actinic supplementation when the Radium bulbs run their life expectancy. I have yet to see any impressive color changes with the bulbs. Most of the SPS corals have changed to a milky brown color, and growth has slowed to a standstill. My mushrooms and zoo's don't seem to respond as well to the light.

I have had the Radiums since Feb and running them on the Son Agro ballasts. I appreciate the fact it can take a long time to see an effect with bulbs, but so far I am not that impressed.

The look of the light is beautiful, but after a while it begins to look artificial in a way.
