HQI replacement time. What bulb do I buy?
It's time to replace my bulbs. I run 2 150 watt HQI bulbs. I like the color of a 14K bulb.
I'd like some input what brand do you prefer? I'm considering one of the following Aqualife Phoenix Oshio Coralife Current |

Current and coralife bulbs are pretty much reguarded as garbage. I had the phoenix for years and still have not come across better color in any lighting modality (MH, T5, etc)
