Usually I have found bulbs to look like crap then get better with burn in, nice to have a great look right out of the box for once.

Changed my old bulbs out this end of August.
I have a Coralife Aqualight Pro 250W MH fixture. So far I still like the new Artemis 14K bulbs. Very crisp. Not too blue, but day-light crisp and bright. So waiting to see how long they take to turn colors to a different spectrum, if at all... Like everyone said, they are cheap enough to be replaced every 6 months or so if necessary. My corals seem happy enough. Lots of new growth, and great colors. Definitely needed to properly thank The Grizz for sharing that info this Spring, or else I'd still be paying $80 or more per bulb! Thanks, Greg!

Ordered 2 of the 15K 250Watt DE bulbs and they arrived the other day. Quite impressed, both bulbs match in color side by side and the color to the eye is a crisp white with a tint of blue. They seem to draw less current. Apex shows 7.4 amps for the pair while the Ushio's drew 8 amps. I note they are quite a bit brighter than the Ushio's, guess it was time to replace the Ushio's.
