FINGERPRINT NOTE: Double ended bulbs should never be handled with bare hands. The oil from your skin can cause the bulb to crack. You could either always hold by the ends or wear cloth gloves. If you accidentally get your finger prints on the bulb sleeve. Take rubbing alcohol and lightly clean with clean cloth.

UV NOTE: Double ended bulbs do not have the enclosed glass like the Mogul screw in type lamps. This means they have no UV shield. You should never run a double ended bulb with out the glass shield. UV damaged can result in your corals, especially gorgonians.

I've been using these bulbs (no supplementation) for over 2 years and think I've found the perfect balance. I've used USHIO 10K (too yellow), Hamilton 14K (not enough growth although they have similiar coloration) and XM 20K (too unnatural/blue-purplish). I think I've found a perfect balance for growth, coloration and lifespan. I'm going on over a year on my bulbs (8 hour photoperiod) and think I may be good for another 3-4 months. My other bulbs usually shifted in color dramatically after 9 months and some (Hamiltons) started misfire/not start after 12 months. I know you should replace them every year but I like to squeeze out as much as I can before shelling out for 3 new bulbs at a time. My tank's still bright and growth on my SPS's has not been limited.
