sorry didn't see the 10k, I just saw the 250 watt mh. Your right the Iwaski doesn't come in 10k.
BTW, I've been reading about the XM bulb, and the 10k version has the highest par rating by wattage than any other 10k bulb. The next is the AB.

Saltwaterdave,
I replaced my Aqualine Bushke's with Coralvues. The bushkes were 1.5 years old and I was getting hair algae. Nothing else in my tank changed, I've started using RODI water and still have the hair algae. Do you think it could be the Coralvues? Did you ever switch yours and what was the result?
