Yeah, I adjusted the white balance on the last pic. But, it's pretty true to the way it looks. I also use 4 vho actinics so my tank is a little overdriven on the blue spectrum. Plus, the last pic was taken about a week ago and I need to replace the mh bulbs as of about 2 months ago. The earlier pics were from when the bulbs were only about 1-3 months old.

I would honestly say that the phoenix bulbs are closer to a 12k bulb, where as most advertised 14k bulbs are actually closer to a 20k spectrum. As you already know, you get a really good look with 20k bulbs, but you sacrifice coral grown. You get excellent growth with a 10k bulb, but they look too yellow. The phoenix bulbs are just the right combination of growth potential and a nice blue tint.
