I find 6500 - 10000k Iwasaki and Ushino to be 3X brighter bulbs when compared to 20k bulbs but just god offally ugly, so I go with the fake 14k that looks closer to a 20k. Alot less blue light and PAR and don't make coral grow as fast. Since I have no intention to turn on the 200w of actinics and kill my chiller, i just use 14k and supplement my coral growth with no Sr or any kind of trace elements.

How about you? What bulb you use and why?
 
I use, the Pheonix 14K becuase I see a lot of growth with it already for using it for one month. I am VERY happy with the new colors I am seeing in my corals as well.
 
65k
if your livestock is tite it's gonna look tite no matter what light it's under. only problem w 65k is im having a hard time taking pic bc it's to0 bright and washes everything out
