What halide bulbs are you all using?

[Wrassemeister]

Just wondering what halide bulbs everyone here is using? Right now my aqua medic fixture has the original 10k bulbs in it and the color is not bad when supplemented with the t5's, but I would like a bit more of a blueness. I was thinking of getting the phoenix 14k's but im not sure if the growth will decrease from the 10k's; I would much rather have them grow faster.
Any shared experience with hqi bulbs would be greatly appreciated; please feel free to post some pics as well if you have any with the bulbs you are referring to.

I use reefoptics 14K. he only sells SE bulbs though.

I am using Reeflux 10k. They are pretty white. The 12k would probably be perfect for you.

Ushio 14K. Hated them for 2 weeks, now a nice white w/ touch of blue. Would look great with actinic, imo.

400W 14K Hamiltons.Love 'em.Just enough blue to not have to supplement.

400W 20K SE Helios. I like them more than 20K XM (more PAR and a little whiter), but beyond that, the only bulbs I've had to compare them with were used 10k, and 14K Hamiltons (both sucked).

couldnt decide so i went with both the reeflux 10k and 12k side by side both great like the intensity of both bulbs if your going with just one id say the 12k is a great mix not to blue but brings the corals out

I have the same fixture I think. It came with two 10k ab bulbs love the color with t5s plus the growth is insane. I think the ab bulbs brings out the true color of the coral.10k Aqualine Buske Brand burns more like a 13k on some web sites they post it as a 13k.This would be my 3rd set since I have own the fixture I guess am to scared to change.

I am using 15,000 K Iwasaki 175 watt bulbs. Best Bulbs I have used to date.

10k 250w hamiltons.Great coral growth but will be switching to the 14k's when these are done for color.

wow looks like everyone is using different bulbs, I guess I will just stick with the aqua line bulbs until its time for change, the growth is good, I guess I will live with the color.
