I don't know about the Iridus but I switched from a Hamilton 14k to the Phoenix 14k and was much happier with the color. The corals are much more colorful as well. The bulbs are $60 from Premium Aquatics/ReefGeek I think.

What about 150?

Yeah Krispy, when I put the Hamilton in after 2 months most all corals browned out.I put the Iridus in and even during burnin the color started returning.Now this colored up nicely.Some changed colors that I never knew were different colors!!!
