Default 250W 10K MH

Well, that is what I'm told, but I've not seen a tank yet that I like with
20,000K bulbs. Taking pictures in that blue lighting is tricky too.

Just paid 125 bucks (plus 20 shipping) for a 250W 10K MH retro kit. Comes
with a 18" batwing reflector, socket, 10K bulb, 10 foot ballast to bulb
cord, 3.5 foot ballast to wall cord and a magnetic ballast in a steel case.

This is going over my 46 gallon bow front lagoon.

The question here is; Do you think buying a 20K bulb is worth all the hype?
I am putting some really colorful clams in it soon along with some gorgeous
blue and pink zoo... I want the colors to really "pop" and to get a good
shimmer.
