What Kein said about symbiosis is very true, if you look at the oceans sps most are tanned to brown, to achieve best results we run our tanks at a much higher kelvin. I noticed the colour of the water changing as I got a few meters from the surface, it got more blue the deeper you went and acros that were deeper had some awesome colouration. Although that being said, some high light species need the blasting of 10k to hold colour. 1 species that likes that spectrum would be pink stylo, under higher k it turns more of a plum purple lower k hot pink.
I guess it's a sacrifice you will have to decide, sticking with the 14k has benefits....
