    I'll sell you 2x250watt 20,000K if you want. Been fired once, they were too blue for me. I want to try the 12-15K Kelvin out... PM me if you are interested.

    Just wanted to do an update on these bulbs. Coral growth has been very good and really like the color. If you need replace ment bulbs you cant go wrong with these. I will update this forum every month or so.

    Good to hear! I didn't realize you were the one who started this thread when i replied to your PM :) I noticed when I swapped to these from 10000k reeflux bulbs my crocera clam kept opening and closing. I'm guessing because a 20000k bulb puts out less PAR than a 10000k?

    Anyone else notice this or am I just crazy?
