Default 250W HQI 20K Opinions

Its almost time to replace my bulbs and I am looking for some advice and opinions on new bulbs.

I am currently running Phoenix 14K and my corals are pretty washed out. I have put a double row of eggcrate over half the tank and that half has gotten much nicer for color. So I am thinking of going to a 20K bulbs instead of another 14K, do you think this choice will help. Im hoping to get a lower PAR level so my colors come back.

What do you guys suggest for a 20K bulb? I was thinking of a Ushio or XM brand but have never tried either.

Any help you guys can give would be appreciated.

Ryan
