Please rec new bulb.

A few months ago I switched from a 250 W 14 K Phoenix DE bulb over my 20 gal SPS frag and clam reef to a 10 K AB bulb to hope for more growth on th frags but the colors look washed out.

Any rec for a higher Kelvin bulb besides the Phoenix? I liked the Phoenix but any others out there better for color etc?

What color, bluer/whiter than the 10K but not as blue as the Phoenix? Or do you want another blue bulb. The 250 watt DE is something like a 9000K bulb in actuality. The Phoenix is listed as a 14000K but it's actually 20000K in color. The new Iwasaki 14000K DE 250 watt probably measures right at 14000K.
Very bright and very white with a slight hint of blue. Nice bulb!
There is also the Reeflux 12000K but the par is lacking although the color is very nice.
