    Metal halide identification

    I just bought a CSL 400watt metal halide setup(used) and it has a Radium HRI-T 400 watt Blue bulb in it. Anybody ever heard of this bulb or any specs on it? I was told it was an aquarium bulb of great quality...
    I am putting this on a 55 gallon cube reef tank. Would somebody please help me out? Thanks in advance!

    Pman,
    WELCOME TO REEFLAND I know Radium makes the 20K bulbs lots of reefers use. its kind of a blue\crisp white. These bulbs are said to only last 10-12 months, some say as little as 6 months. I'm sorry I could be more help.

    Timing has an awful lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.
