I have the opportunity to get a set of 2 250 MH fromhamilton for very cheap. I have a choice of bulbs. Should I go for 10000k or 14000k? I plan to keep mostly high light softies and lps with a couple sps in there for garnish. I also have a clam, a derasa. I currently have 6 t5ho but only use 4 most of the time. This is in a AllGlass 90. I can use some of the t5ho to supplement the MH.
I want a crisp white with good definition of color and a hint of blue.
Are the 14kk very blue? Do they wash out colors like reds and oranges? Do they get whiter after burnin? Would it be too blue with the t5 actinics?
Are the 10kk too yellow or red? Would t5ho tame them? I have 2 each of Actinic and Actinic+ by Geissman so I am flexible with the colors.
Thanks.
