favorite 14k 150 watt bulb?
I need to switch from my 10k's to 14. It looks to yellow for my taste. I have 4 t5 actinics as supplementation. Anyone have a bulb they would recommend?

Anyone else have an opinion? And aren't Ushio's known for being on the white side?

well, i have the phoenix 14k bulbs which have a bit of blue on the icecap electronics, but I'm not impressed with the color. They are bright, but ome colors get washed out pretty badly. I have T5 suppliments I use to offset that. My next bulbs I'm going to try are the Radiums and 12k Reeflux.

Iwaskai 50k. Bulb is really close to 14k though. I had the Phoenix 14k before switching. Look about the same to me. Iwaskai was $20 more so I probably won't replace it with another. Both bulbs really haven't tripped my trigger. I will probably try another one next. I also have no supplementation. I've only had the Iwaskai for a week so maybe it needs to burn in a bit more?

takes approximately 100 hours of use for halide bulbs to break in - give or take

The Hamilton 150 watt 14K has a NICE color. I would suggest that bulb.

I also love the color of my phoenix 14k, although I was comparing them against the previous aqualine 10k (awful) so yellow.
