6 bulb combo using actinics ?

[LEGACYLINE]

My next combo I was thinking about adding in some actinic to my mix I was thinking

Blue plus
Coral plus
Actinic
Blue plus
Coral plus
Actinic

Has anyone used this specific combo I know the par will be a bit lower I was wondering about acro growth and color using actinic in the mix thanks for any info

I’m not a huge fan of actinic. I run 2 on my 8 bulb but it’s hardly noticeable. If you want pop, get a supplemental blue LED strip.

I'm not really into "pop" I was just wondering how others though it affected the coral seeing how lately actinic spectrum is important for photosynthesis

Anyone else have any results on growth using actinics or haven't noticed much difference?

It’s probably been 20 years since I’ve run an actinic T5 bulb. I don’t remember noticing any difference.

Daylight bulbs are great for growth. Put it toward the back and you’ll barely notice it with a 6 bulb fixture.
