I just upgraded to a new AquaticLife T5 4x24w 50/50 bulb fixture and curious about something... my previous Current USA 2 bulb fixture used a 12k white, and the new ones are 10k white. Are the "k" (kelvin?) ratings much of a difference or should I only look at the wattage for light dependent corals, etc?
From my reading the higher the "k" the deeper it will penetrate the water?
Last question would be the bulbs look like they are the same, can I use the 12k from my other fixture and replace one of the 10k bulbs? Or not advisable to mix?
