75.25 VHOs

Has anyone tried the UVL 75.25 bulbs in their tank?

I thought they were a bluer bulb than the actinic that UVL makes...but you think it is a pink bulb?

I am using one in combo with an actinic bulb and to my eyes it is like a dimmer version of an actinic white bulb.

Nice green tree python! I used to keep snakes when I was a single guy.
I run 2 super and 2 actinic bulbs now with a couple LPS's and a few BTAs...I would like the tank to look more blue so was wondering if these bulbs would do that for me.
