As I am currently upgrading 250watt 20k bulbs, not sure what is recommended to give the nicest clearest light to make my sps and lps really "pop". What do you guys suggest, what brand of bulb should I be looking at buying? My tank is 24" wide and 30" tall. Tank will only have MH lighting, no supplemental actinic. Thanks

Phoenix 14K or Reeflux 12k.

Ignorant question of the day, but what is the difference between 12k, 14k and 20k? I was previously running the 20k and I thought 20k gave more light output, is this incorrect?
