Since I asked the T-5 question, I may as well have you guys help me out on my MH decision :)

Coral color is most important to me, followed by growth. I have a 72 gallon bowfront mixed reef (SPS LPS Softies) with an Outer Orbit Pro 4x 54w t5ho and 2x250w MH with 2 Current 10ks in it now.
 
I would go with 14k phoenix. BECAUSE your t5's will give the pop and 14k will have better growth. especially a phoenix
 
i used to have the phoenix 14k...loved them. my newest bulbs are helios 20k. LOOVVVVVE THEM! I'll probably never change bulbs. even people with radiums complement the colors of my tank. They would be my option, but I don't think u could go wrong with either of your choice's.
 
I have tried both, I stuck with the Phoenix, but agree on the Radium as well. Ushio mehhh.
 
Phoenix bulbs are no longer being manufactured so will be hard to get moving forward..
