Pet Forum / Aquaria / Marine Reef / April 2004Sun Aquatics
Hello, I just bought three Sun Aquatics 10K 175W Mh bulbs. They make my tank look like a tank of pee! The tank is so yellow that it litterally looks like urine! I put my old bulbs back, and the store does not want to take the new ones back. They lost a good customer. Has anybody else had this problem with these bulbs? Can anyone recomend a brand? I don't know what brand my old ones are, but they are about three years old, so I thought I would change them. But not with the crap that I just bought. Sun Aquatics suck, unless of course you like a pee tank. GB I can not speak from experience on these bulbs but many bulbs require a "burn in" period. Take my Blueline 10000k + for example. When I first turned them on, they were way too blue. Looked more like a 20000k. After about 100 hours they whitened up very nicely and now I absolutely love them. hth ~Mort > Hello, I just bought three Sun Aquatics 10K 175W Mh bulbs. They make my tank > look like a tank of pee!

I do supplement with two 110w Actinic VHO bulbs, and the color is perfect. Marc > Hello, I just bought three Sun Aquatics 10K 175W Mh bulbs. They make my tank > look like a tank of pee!
