good comparason info on bulbs

[Troy F]

I am wondering because if it is even only close to the 250 wattt iwasaki instead of the 400 watt like the AB version for 10 bucks mor eit would be worth it to have the 10000K colour temp.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I'm sure you're aware of this but don't forget to take bulb life in when comparing costs. This is where the Iwasaki really takes the lead IMO.

Of course to every point there is a counterpoint [img]smile.gif[/img] .

DaleD had a 175W 10000K AB bulb over a LPS and softie tank that had been on there for I think 18 months with no signs of problematic microalgae. Chime in Dale if you happen to be reading.
