  Description
We offer a wide variety of Metal Halide bulb choices to suit your aquarium lighting needs.

Most of the MH bulbs in the same wattage format can be interchanged. However, please contact us to make sure.

The K at the end of color rating for each bulb stands for Kelvin. This is a measurement of the color temperature. The higher the Kelvin rating, the cooler (bluer) the color of light given off by the bulb. In general, the color given off by the 10,000K German is interpreted as being a perfect white color.

NOTE: Double ended bulbs should always be used with the UV shield (supplied). Your corals can suffer from excess UV radiation otherwise. The bulb should be handled carefully as well since it has no outer glass casing. Using soft gloves is a good idea to keep finger prints off bulb. This is during installation and replacement. The average life of a double ended bulb is 12-18 months.

megachrome 20K by TONYA BEAM

Comments: I would highly recommend these light, they are great. If you want your coral colors to pop Buy these lights. I had 10K's and they were fine but I wanted more blue, so I ordered the 20k megachrome and I was so pleased. Plus my coral love them. One thing I have to say also, I have ordered from Marine Depot several times and they always have good prices and if you need help just call they are always helpful and have some one who can answer any question you may have about a product. Hope this helps someone who may be wondering about the 20k's. Thanks Tonya Beam
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

This bulb rocks! by apatheticmonkey

Comments: As the title says . . THIS BULB ROCKS. I was originally hesitant to drop an extra $40 on this bulb but in actuallity that is the cheapest investment you can make to get your tank to shine like that. Over the past five years, I have tried both PFO and Metal Halide lighting with various bulbs and arrangements. None of which compare to the quality of light provided by this 250 W 20000K Metal Halide Bulb. The light is by far the most crisp and clear I have ever seen. My tank has really impressed made me smile in the past but I couldn't help but grin from ear to ear when I put this bulb in. (BTW it takes a few days for the bulb to get broken in and really shine)
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
