I just started this thread to thank the forum for alll of the great lighting threads that are posted here. I read the MH comparison charts and I have been a die hard USHIO 10K bulb user for quite some time. I decided to go with the XM's because the PAR ratings were higher..... and I will have to say, that all of my corals responded really well with the new bulbs and have deeper color, etc and are growing well. I know this is expected with a bulb change, but I change mine out every 8 months regardless and the colors of the colors have increased/enriched with the new bulbs....

I would just like to say thanks for the great info. I'm impressed with the XM bulbs so far.
