Reeflux 150W 12K double-ended MH light

It's about time to change the bulb in my MH lighting fixture. I would like a slightly bluer tint then what I have now. Not sure what bulb is in there now. Anyhoo, a local reefer said that the Reeflux 12k MH bulbs are fairly blue considering that they are only 12K. This particular bulb was his suggestion. I've never had experience with this brand and am looking for some feedback. My current bulb is pretty white with not much blue.

What ballast and bulb do you have now? If HQI then i would suggest a pheonix 150 if looking for my blue. ( Reeflux bulbs are great though, they are very bright and have some blue) It all depends on what you like.
