ReefLux is the first true 10000K full spectrum metal halide bulb to be offered to the aquarium market.
Other manufacturers claim to offer a 10000K lamp but that is just a marketing number of their best attempt to offer a full spectrum 10000K lamp.
This is why they have a yellow or orange appearance and need to have some kind of fluorescent actinics to balance it out.
Generally the more yellow or orange a bulb the more PAR the bulb will produce.
ReefLux offers you the highest PAR rating without having to flood your aquarium with high powered fluorescent blue bulbs.

5 out of 5 stars White
by Matt from JAX, FL on 12/7/2009
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
I purchased the 150W DE 10k bulbs. When I first fired them up I thought, I had made a mistake going from the 12k to the 10k (very yellow looking). However, after less than a week the yellow faded and now they are exactly as advertised, white! not yellow, not blue. Definitely, BRIGHTER and less blue than the 12ks I had previously in this same brand. With two geissman pure actinic and two actinic+ (54Watt) it is still very blue, but much more par than you would get with 12 or 14k de bulbs.

5 out of 5 stars great bulbs
by MMurray from Birmingham,AL on 11/18/2009
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
purchased this bulb to replace Current 10K that came with my system(2 x 150HQI & 2 actinic 135watt pc) I wanted just a little more blue than the current bulb and a 14k was to blue with the pc actinics. This bulb worked perfectly, nice clean crisp blue color great compliment to the actinic.

4 out of 5 stars Very Nice 12ks
by IronChef44 from Schenectady, NY on 9/10/2009
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
HQIs have an obvious burn-in time, but these bulbs have shown a great color improvement in under two hours. Although a slight change in kelvin increased the blues from 10k to 12k, the intensity is back in my system. The bulbs are a little more blue than expected (almost that of a 14k). If using a PC supplemented system I would recommend these bulbs, but in my 4x54w T-5ho, 2x150w HQI I would go with the 10k Reeflux.

5 out of 5 stars Nice!
by Wiz from Chi on 8/30/2008
Recommends it to Friends: Yes
Great product, very good color and growth! It has a very crisp white-blue color not to yellow like some 10Ks and not WAY to blue like 20Ks. Growth is also great, a nice steady increase, slower than 6,5K and 10K but usually faster than 20K.
