I want to try your old radium bulb or others

I have a 150 watt HQI pendant and want to try the radium bulb or one you prefer. It is time for a new one and I just want to see the difference before buying a new one. Right now I am running a coralife 20K. It looks o.k. but I have some nice corals now and I want them to pop, and it is not happening under the coralife.

When I had 150's I tried about every bulb out there. I liked the 14K Phoenix the best. They definately had a blue tint to them and my corals grew well.

thanks darren. I was thinking about the phoenix but got a lot of buzz about the radium 250 watt. Figured the 150 watt would be the same. It like the price of the phoenix vs. the other as well.

I tried the 150W Radium when I ran 150's and just was not as impressed. I do like the SE 250 version though.
