Ive been using 14k phoenix for the past year. The color is great but growth wasn't. Im looking to get either a reeflux 10k or 12k bulb. I have VHO supplements also. Anybody have any experience with these bulbs?

yea thats what Ive heard too. Does the 12k need actinics? Im wondering if the 10k growth would be significantly better. I really want to make my blues pop.

Yellow? that is impossible. What ballast are you using? Mine is crisp white with a tint of blue. Very very nice. You are more than welcome to come by and check it out.

Here is pic of my 4x250w reeflux 10k without atinic supplement



With VHO

They are double ended bulbs with PFO HQI Ballast. Ive only had 20ks and 14ks on all the tanks Ive had so I think im just too use to the bluer look. I really like the color of your tank witht he VHO's on so I should be set once my bulbs arrive
