Anyone use the MH bulbs from Pet Supply Liquidators?

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.

That is the whole point is that these bulbs are supposedly 10000K but " appear " yellow which would suggest a Kelvin rating closer to 6500K or less ... I am pretty sure nobody has indicated that 'sakis should appear white but that a 10000K should.
