I just bought the 14K (250W metal halides) Phoenix for my 225G
I LOVE THEM
ushio and AB 20k are the same bulb (box and price are the only difference) and aquamaxx 14k look almost identicle side by side and perform the same. I like those for LOOKS on that list.
I am trying to find the right bulb i just got a new 716 watt light and geting ready to buy me a 90 gal. tank with over flows and thinking of where to put it under my stairs in the wall or up stairs where i have my 55

my ballast is elc hid ballast the light is Odyssea and i love the light have had some problems with the ballast's but i know how to fix the ballast that is what i whent to school for. the ballast whent out and i fixed them planing to get icecap ballast's win these go out again and i can not fix them
I just replaced my 150MH with a Phoenix 14k. Not sure if i like it. Its only been 2 days so I'm hoping it whitens up a bit. Didn't think it would be this blue. Is there different types of phoenix bulbs? The one I purchased from SOS said hexarc blue.
One of the best coral eye popping appeal bulbs IMO is the 20k Radium bulbs.. but I run 14k Phoenix. I like the phoenix bulbs and I can get them ALOT cheaper although I am tempted to try radium some day as I love the looks of them on other tanks.
