    Im dying here guys... I need to buy a new bulb ASAP for me 150W X 2. Sunpod. What is the best, that will last the longest and wont be too blue but will give me the best growth for SPS?? Also i heard that phoenix bulbs lose alot of their intensity after about 6months. I know im getting annoying and i appologize but i need help.. I have 2 65w PC actinics on the back of my tank also.. My choices are:

    Hamilton(14K)
    XM(10K)
    Phoenix(14K)
    SPS(14K)

    I've never had these fixtures, but most leading brands will be very serviceable. Much of the time it comes down to honest opinion of different people. If there was one best bulb there would only be one brand.
