Phoenix 14k MH bulbs

[blk822822]

I have run the phoenix 14k bulb befor and it was pretty blue for a 14k. Is there a bluer bulb? I don't want to run actinic suppliments on my frag tank. The bulb on it now is a JBJ 14K bulb and probably in need of changing, but I want the bluest bulb I can get. I know the Phoenix Hexarc blues are good and have great growth, but have never tried any others. Whats your opinions....Iknow LEDS....but I want to stick to this MH setup.

Yeah, I used a PFO HQI ballast when I had the Radium bulbs on my tank.

Radiums 20K HQI. You will definitely get a lot more blue from them versus the Phoenix 14K.
