It works... by Skippy

Comments: I purchased this bulb as an exchange for very finicky USHIO 175W / 10000k bulb (Item # MB4413) that refused to light-up at all. XM bulb works, color is fine, but I had to drop my light from about 13" down to 7" from the top of the aquarium to get a decent light(but not as bright as my previous USHIO bulb). I think I am going to get the second XM bulb and run 2 of the m in order get back to the level of light that my corals are used to. Also, be aware that XM bulb is somewhat longer than USHIO equivalent. For most of you it may not be a big deal but with my cone-shape lights, it forced me to forget about putting a glass shield in the enclosure. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: A little yellow for my taste but they're only 10,000K, so what should I expect. So far they're great though. No complaints. I've had them for about 2 weeks now and we'll see how it goes.
