Light K config (your input)

Dave & Monica · 03/22/2008, 08:05 AM

I replaced my HQI bulbs with XM 10Ks, and theyâ€™re way more yellow/white for my liking so whatâ€™s your take on this config:

HQI (x2) from 10K to 14K (more blue)
2 T5 10K (will buy new)
2 T5 Super antic (new as well)

I have some SPS, lots of LPS and a Clam to consider. Is 10K the perdominant kelvin frequency for Corals?

Today I have two powerglo (30W 10K) and two marineglo (30W Antic) and the HQIâ€™s are 10K but the old ones seemed way more blueishâ€¦ but they were old.
