Default GE 9325 anf this bulb...

Here is a place I found the GE bulb and a 6500k/6700k bulb too (to save on shipping which is $10.95 through this place).

I would assume that this 6500k bulb will be fine, right?

It says
55W 6500K 2G11 BASE 21.1" DAYLIGHT DT55/65/RS EIKO

So I would assume it a 6500K bulb

Yeah there isnt too much info on it through the site. I would just hate to order a light and it not work out.

I assume a 6500k pc bulb from brandx is relatively similar as a 6500k bulb from coralife or current as far as plant growth...

K rating means very little in the grand scheme of things. Chances are any whitish bulbs will grow plants well, even the crappy warm white bulbs will grow plants.
