Pet Forum / Aquaria / Marine Reef / November 2005175W 10000K Venture MH Or hamilton 14000K
Was wondering if any one can give me an opinion on witch bulbs would give a better look I've been using the 14k hamilton for awhile now because the 10k ones are just way to yellow but I would like to get more of a crisp white/blue look then the 14 k's give me. Have tried the 12 k's and like them but have trouble getting them to burn consistently with the same light output. Was wondering if any one has used the 10000K Venture MH, i've read they burn with a 13k appearance. Can someone please comment on this also what's is ideal life on theses bulbs i change the hamiltons after about 8 months or i start to get bad algae booms until i change them guess the spectrum goes bad about that time thx for all input Mike Umm, the 10k are not yellow. Your water might be, but the light is not.

Change it after 1 month, if it works.

Also just for future info some 10K bulbs do burn with a yellow look to them you can go here to see a color comparison that some one has done http://www.coralreefecosystems.com/ltg_bulb_color.htm or you can call Hamilton tech at 1-800-447-9797 and ask them why their bulbs look yellow and they will tell you that their 10K bulbs will look yellow for the first 100 hours a burn in time so to speak I have found even after the 100 hours they still have a yellow look to them just not as bad as when they are new that is why i went to the 14K hamiltons, and was asking about the Venture MH bulbs. So in the future instead of making false statements, or not fully comprehending a question please keep your useless thoughts to yourself and I'm really glad I don't do any shopping at WaynesPets.com if this is the extent of your knowledge and feel sorry for those who do. But! thanks for your effort > Umm, the 10k are not yellow.

And he was refering to the 10 k hamilton bulbs. Learn how to read.
