    In past have always run (2) 65w atinic (2) 65w 10k pc's, along with a 250w 10K HQI metal hallide lamp.

    Gave very bright/sharp light in tank when all on.

    Just changed out all bulbs and this time I used a 14K 250w bulb in the MH...used same pc's


    Gives a much smoother light blue tint to tank, not nearly as sharp, and is much easier on eyes.

    I like it.

    Hope my fish and corals will. :-/
