I am using 55k right now with what I consider pretty good results. I went
from a 10k to the 55k and SPS corals totally colored up. I do supplement
with 2 VHO actinics and 2 VHO 50/50s though. That obviously helps....
Does anyone know if any companies have started producing a 65k 175 watt MH
bulb yet??? They hadnt when I bought my last bulbs.
