To my eyes it was yellowish. This was a six month old bulb, but if you like it, don't take what I feel as gospel.

Gieseman bulbs are available from J&L.

Very good deal - I just paid $60 each! I like them, I don't see them as yellow - more on the blue end, but maybe that's me.

It is all how your eyes see things

. In my case there was another tank with a 50/50 bulb next to the tank with the Coralife bulb. That was probably why it looked yellowish.

Oops - maybe I confused things . . . the ones I bought are 50/50 . . . I should learn to read!
