I use the UVL VHO super actinics, they work well for actinic support and I have mostly SPS. I used to have 20k Radiums, it looked very blue. The actinic VHO's add a pink/purple coloration & look.
I order mine from Marine Depot

All fluorescent bulbs have a 30-day warranty. Because fluorescent light bulbs are extremely fragile, they require special handling and packaging for safe transport. The special packaging we use for fluorescent bulbs accommodates multiple bulbs so the more you buy, the more you save.
