Anyone running the Current 14 or 20K 150W HQI's?

I have a coralife dual 36" 150w HQI fixture. I liked the coralife bulbs but thought they were missing something. I swapped them out for XM 20k bulbs. I like the xm but am now wanting to try another bulb? Once the XM's burnt in, they have a 14k look to them. Not to blue and not to white. Just right.
I was wondering what the new Current bulbs look like? Anyone running them, either 14k or 20k and can share some photos?
Thanks

I have the 36" Sunpod fixture(2 150w 14k) on my 46 gallon. I didnt like the fixture at first. I thought it was too much on the blue side. After a few weeks i guess the bulbs broke in or something cause now i love them. Heres a pic of when i first got em. Its with actinics. I dont run the actinic anymore.

Nice tanks and thank you!

I haven't seen coralife 14k either. Do they have it in a 250 hqi also?
Spankey, I saw you said someone you know is opening a fish store in the area ( Sinking Spring, Pa) Do you have directions? Sorry don't want to rob the thread. Email me markhummel00@hotmail.com Thanks like to check them out.

Hummel,
It isn't open yet. It opens in July. He keeps pushing the opening back. It is located in the Boscov's East complex which is actually north a tad from Exeter on Rt 422 and is below Mt.Penn. Its below the Bowl and Grill if you know where that is. I can get directions later.
Thanks
