I am in the process of researching getting two 250w MHs for my 40 gallon breeder reef tank, nearly all SPS. I have been told that 10K bulbs will give great growth with good color and 20K bulbs give great color with good growth. Since I am going to supplement with Actinic VHO I am probably going to go with 10K. So I was wondering what brand bulbs do people recommend and why...Iwasaki, Ushio, Venture, Aqualine Buschke, Coralife, Blueline etc. Please comment. Oh yeah, I don't want a yellow or blue look, but a crisp bright white look.

If you want a sparkling white look USHIO is the way to go. So far I´ve learned it is the best 10000k bulb around, AB, Coralife and others suck.
Iwasakis as 6500k. If you want great growth this is the way to go but your water would look yellow.
