    Got the new halide 20k bulbs in today. What a difference in color spectrum from the Phoenix 14k. I'm really impressed with the XM 20k, really nice balance of blue and brightness. Now I wait.........

    Thanks todd. I've been reading a lot about led lighting and im nervous about changing but halide bulbs and chillers are getting old. I'm really liking the radion pro with the UV and 2 small XR15 will look very clean as well. I'm actually in the process of switching over my wife's tank to a seahorse tank and we're gonna buy an amazon fixture for that tank.
