I use coralvue and think they give of a crisp blue tint on the 250W 14k but I am only comparing them to Arcadia's same brand. Best ask around M8.

Coralvue tend to be a bit cheap and tacky IME (made in China I think), So I'd go for BLV. Never seen any in the flesh though, so I don't know what the colour is like.

the price is good at 36.00 for 150w 20,000 cant argue with that when you gotta buy 3

No Gary no luck to date, As for the link we get comission if you buy from the reeflighting link rather than marinelighting. Rob is a sound guy (marinelighting) and basically supply's most the UK marine shops / mail order.
