Hqi halide bulbs

[brownsalt92]

I one out of my two 10000k hqi 250 watt bulbs burned out today should I purchase Amazon $20 bulbs or spend $65 a piece on Phoenix 14k bulbs? Even if I'm changing out the $20 bulbs every 6 months? What do you think

I would go with the Phoenix bulb. It will have a nicer blue color than the 10k bulb and has a proven track record.

I assume you mean double ended bulbs and not HQI. I think that we spend a lot of money on corals, why not buy quality bulbs once a year to keep them looking better. The phoenix is a good bulb for the price.

Yes it is double ended
