DIY lighting ???

marcs4020 · Jul 9, 2005

I currently have the 2 x 65 watt atinic and 2 x 65 watt 10k powercompacts in my fixture. I have the oppurtunity to get 2 x 150 watt mh retrofits but i'm not sure what bulbs to get. My options are 10k and 14k for the same price. I figured that because I do have atinics I should go with the 10k bulb because the 14k also goes into the same spectrum as my atinics but i am not sure what to to and exactly what the difference will be. Any help would be great.
thanks a lot

What size tank are we working with??? IMO I would opt for at least the 175 if it were me....JMO for now...

If your looking purely for astetics go with what you like, if you want to get the most bang for your buck, check how the different light/ballast combos perform vs. one another here;
