    can any of you all tell me the difference between 12000k and 6700k, I am about to buy a new pc light for my tank and the choices are between those bulbs. Don't know which to get.

    It is a number that represents the coloration of the bulb with regards to its position on the light spectrum. The 6700k bulb is going to have more red/yellow/white to it while the 12000k bulb will contain more of the colors at the other end of the spectrum(green/blue/purple)!
