20k DE Ushio bulb for me...it's pretty blue though. Planning on swapping with the 14k Phoenix for my next, or the Gieseman 14.5k Megachrome,

I like the look of my 20K XMs with no supplimental actinics. More PAR than the 15K XMs too.

I had those bulbs aswell /. I had 2 running on my 120. Looked ok at first but after 8 months they were really yellow. Wendell at OA recommended the Geinsmann 13k 250 hqi. Amazing difference, My colors really stand out now. ie regal tang and my brains.. I have 2 vho actinics aswell.

My camera is not good enough to pick up the color correctly, the camera shows more blue that it looks to me, so my pictures wont give you a very good sense of the bulbs.

as an example of what I mean, this is the 250w 10k hamilton. Note the monti cap looks blue and the open brain on the sand bed is completely washed out.
 and this is how they looked under 175w 10k xm's. Purple monti cap on the upper left and the brain on the sand on the right
