The Ushio 14Ks are very white... no yellow, but they really do need a bit of extra blue IMO.

My previous bulbs were 400W Ushios and I found them just a tad too white. The 400s were so powerful supplemental light had no effect.

Since switching to 250W Ushios I've supplemented them with 1 Actinic+ and 1 Fiji Purple T5 and I've been reasonably happy with the color. I'm thinking of switch out the Actinic+ for a pure actinic, just to get a tiny bit more blue.

If you want to show off and enhance your pinks... Fiji Purple!
