VHO bulb selection

tufacody · 02/26/2009, 07:02 PM

I'm looking for suggestions for a 10-14k VHO bulb. I have two aquasuns but they are just to red for my tastes. I'd prefer they have built in reflectors.

i like whitiesh bulbs. i see so many otherwise beautiful tanks that are just washed out in blue. Any comments on the UV Actinic White or the Aqua-D White Aqua?

The 75/25 are "whiter" than the 50/50's.
