    Ok cool then I will order one and see if there's a major difference. I think I will chack out the XM bulb heard more good than bad we will see.

    i've read really good feedback about the phoenix 14k...crisp white with a lot of blue spikes. i hear nothing but a positive effect on corals and the visual color to the human eye. it's what i'm going to switch to when my hamilton 14k has shed it's life. something to think about, hth.
