Hello I was just wondering what I could replace my two bulbs with on my 48" fixture. The two 10000k bulbs in there make it too yellow and bright. I'd like it a little darker and blue/whiter? Could a 6700 and a blue bulb work fine? Thanks
 
if your 10000k bulbs are yellow thne there either too old or the manufacturer is trying to rip people off 10000k should appear white with a very slight blue hue

time to replace your bulbs or buy from a different brand
 
I have 2 "aqua-glo" 18000k's on a 48 inch fixture for my 75 and it seems to give me the exact color and brightness you are describing.
Power-glo also has a blueish tint, but apears a little more purple as well.
