planted tank- metal halides

[Left C]

What are the best looking 150w and 175w Metal Halide bulbs for a freshwater planted tank?

They can either be Screw Socket or Double Ended HQI bulbs.

Or, which ones are ugly or bad?

You mean color temp? Around 5000 to 10000k are widely used. I think 6700k is the most popular.

Thanks, but that's not what I'm asking. I'm not looking for a general answer.

I mean specifically which ones. Brand, K value, HQI or Screw, part # if you know it, etc.

I'm looking to find the best one and avoid the worst ones.
