6500K should not apear white at all. 6500 K is a little closer to a white than actual sunlight which is 5500K but the Iwasakis shoudl apear a little yellow if they are true to there color temp.
this problem is compounded farther by the green tint on the glass and the organic levels in the water. when it is all said and done, if you want white buy a 10000K bulb and the proper ballast.
