I tried the reeflux 10k de lamps on a coralvue electronic 250w ballast and found the colour to be way to pink for my liking. I switched to 12k and this was much better. It may be too blue for those of you who already run supplementry blue lightiing. There is deffo something a little odd with the reeflux bulbs as some find the 10k a very crisp white light. I think the SE bulbs may be a little more consistent in terms of colour

Thanks! I just got 10K SE and RF electronic ballast, so I hope it works well. Now I just need a good reflector.....

That was alot of info. I planned on going with the 12K anyways. so should have no pink issues.
I have a PFO magnetic ballast and also a PFO HQI ballast, they are both 250W. Should i run them on the magnetic so they dont get over driven? My 2nd choice would be to get the Radium 20K and run on the HQI |

Has anyone ran the Reeflux 10k or 12k with an Aquamedic Oceanlight? i have just purchased one and need to replace the lamps, as they have milage. This fixture has the (2) 250w DE MH w/ (2) T-5 actinics. I will be using the original ballast from AB. Does anyone have any experience with this set up and lamps? I am interested in keeping a mixed SPS/ LPS and clams in a 90 gal system. Thanks!

I have been using 2 250w SE 12k bulbs for about 8 months now. I really like them and I will continue to use them.. the LPS love it, and SPS and acros are growing fast...I use actitics along with them...I really did not want a bright white bulb since my 90G tank is in my living room.

I was just at the LFS and 2 guys talked me out of the Reeflux 12K They said it was yellow? I have not seen on here where its yeloow any opinions?
I will not be using supplements. SO i was getting Reeflux 12K or Radium 20K |

I think the radium and the reeflux bulbs are both awesome. The 12k reeflux are far from yellow, look at the picks in the pages before this. They will be more yellow on magnetic ballasts then on electronics most likely though.

thanks..that's because he's running 400w - there is not much PAR difference between the 12k and 10k in 400w....that is not the case with 250w...the 12k has a very low par where the 10k is higher.
