70w HQI bulb options. Aqualine, USHIO, others OPINIONS PLEASE

[stevel48]

So, i want to replace the 14k bulb in my Sunpod with a 10k for better SPS growth. The Aqualine is advertised as 10k with a color temp of 13k. What's the real deal? Ushio seems to have less output according to sanjays reef lighting page. in 150w and up at least.

What is a good white 10k bulb to go with?

May want to check with nano-reef.com. I dont think there are many people here using 70 watters (please correct me if wrong). If you can do a 150, I love the Giesemann coral bulb for a 10K even though its rated at 14500K.

I figured as much. I'm looking for good PAR on a 70w for my 10 gal nano.
