i know with my 250w mh and my dual pc actinics there isnt much diff with mine. the pc's imo dont do much in my tank till the halide goes out. i have a 14k in there right now but i want to go with something more blue. if there was one between 14 and 20 id get it. i just need to replace all my bulbs to know whats gonna work best
