Those are the ones from Lights64? Just brought 2 175w 14000k SE bulbs in from him, pretty decent color, tho for some reason one ballast makes one appear really yellow (swap bulbs that side is still yellow). Not sure whats up with that, the other side is a nice crisp color.

Good to hear. I just hit the Buy button for a few of the same.

Yeah I think those are the ones. Glad to hear you are happy. Too bad about your ballast problem. Do you mind telling me what the total cost was? I think I will be getting a couple myself.

Thanks

Got my bulbs today (2 175w 14000k). Took about a week to get here. When looking at the ebay page for lights64 I found a 1-800 number I just call em up and placed an order. My tank is not up and running yet but I did try out the bulbs and I think they look great. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction

Mike
