stay away from hammer tone finnish, not what you want in your tank.

thats something a guy who has been using T5's would buy so the light is a bit difused and won't shock him to much

seriously though hammer tone was used to get better dispersion but at the cost of strenght.. moderen reflectors are much more advanced in the dispersion than when we were making our own reflectors so that hammer tone isn't realy required anymore.
