I've noticed that the longer it is on the whiter it becomes.
the first 4hrs it keeps some blue, but after the first 4hrs it turns white.
One thing I noticed about that bulb is that the glass it is comprised of has a blue hue where other bulbs I have seen is clear.
I guess that helps add to some blue to the bulb.
dunno.

Yep. I've sometimes noticed when I look at the tank that it has a deep blue appearance...I'll walk in a few hours later and it looks like I just slapped a 6700k on there. I've wondered if maybe the ambient light coming into the room causes the tank to appear a different kelvin color

Well, after letting the Ushio 10k burn in for a couple days, it's now a silvery white color. I really, really, like it. It seems much more natural than the Phoenix. I don't have actinics either. All the coral seem to like it as well.
