Yellow bulb?? Mh

[Reef Keeper 18]

So I purchased a HRI-TS 150W Radium bulb today for my mh in my solana.... It's supposed to be. More blue color and I find its yellow... Are all these bulbs yellow in color or are yours more blue like their supposed to be?

If its a Radium bulb it should be quite blue. They do occasionally have bad bulbs. If the color doesn't shift after a couple of hours of burn in I would contact the vendor that you got it from and make arrangements for an exchange.

Thanks, I thought they were blue, but I wasn't sure if I might have made a mistake thinking a bulb had a more blue tint when it did not.

The 150w Radiums are less blue than their 250w counterparts.

IME the 150w Phoenix is more blue than the 150w radium.
