New 13K 250 watt HQI bulb

[Timothy Tom]

Just came across a new bulb that Aqualine has just put out apparently.
It is a 250 watt double-ended HQI bulb with a 13K color temp. This
is exactly what I need since I have been a little unhappy with the
yellow-green tint my current 10K bulb puts out. Here is the
description

AB76250 250 watt Aqualine 10,000 German HQI double ended Metal Halide
Bulb. The Aqualine 10,000 lamp has a color temperature of 13,000
Kelvin $84.99

Found it at underwatercreations.com

After calling to various retailers, it appears that this bulb is
nothing new. This is simply the first time that a retailer has
included the statement that it has a color temp of 13K. Whether this
bulb actually does have a 13K color is another issue.
