I recently bought a Current HQI Sundial Pendant. The Current 10,000k bulb was way too yellow. I replaced it with a Ushio 14,000k and I also replace the two Sunpaq 32 watt 420/460nm pc actinics with 460nm ones. The color is no long yellow but white. I do get a good amount of color from it but I think it could be better. I do not want to go to a Pheonix 14,000k, they shift in about 6 months. I was up at Plymounth Pet. Jay has Radium 20,000k SE on magnetic ballasts on his reef tanks. I was really impressed. It doesn't have that washed out blue color of some 20,000k bulbs. I hear that the Radium 20,000k on a HQI electronic ballast is more of a 15,000k color and people really like the color. Has anyone had experience with a Radium 20,000k 150 watt DE bulb on an electronic ballast?
