METAL HALIDE 250W 20K XM DE BULB

250W 20000K METAL HALIDE DOUBLE ENDED BULB - XM The XM double-ended 20000K metal halide bulb offers excellent coloration and good intensity. It is white with a strong blue tint. It brings out the fluorescent pigments in corals nicely. Fluorescent supplementation is usually not necessary, but can be used for added intensity and to simulate dawn and dusk. This bulb will work with a standard magnetic ballast, magnetic pulse-start ballast or magnetic HQI ballast: it is not compatible with IceCap electronic ballasts. It must also be housed inside a pendant. It cannot be used with simply a reflector in an open application as UV rays emitted by the bulb must first be filtered with a UV-proof lens. An excellent choice for reef tanks up to 24" deep.
