Alright... I had one of my 10k's blow today, and need to get a replacement... I figure i'll at least go ahead and replace both of the 10k's... What brand of bulbs would you all reccommend and who do you reccommend ordering them from?

Just curious but, did the light explode or just burn out? Im sure if it exploded you would have said somthing else. Just wondering.
CR Member
yeah, it just burnt out. I came home and it was out... I put another bulb in the sockets to make sure it wasn't them... and it lit w/ no problem.

I bought the GE lights from reefgeek.com... good prices, reasonably fast shipping w/o paying xtra, and nice customer service!

thats what i did SP... i bought 2 aqua blues, 1 super actinic, and 1 daylight.

I really like the super actinics - I've bought two from them so far!
If I remember correctly, I originally bought the aqua blue, blue plus, super actinic, and the 10k GE. I saw nice SPS growth with this lighting scheme.
When one bulb blew out earlier this year, I ordered all new bulbs. This last time I went with all UV lighting: 1 10k, 1 12k, 1 14k, and 1 super actinic, and after several months I am still seeing impressive SPS growth.
HTH
