My current tank is a 96x48x24 300g; currently running 5 radion G4 Pro lights using the SPS AB+ profile shown here:

I see that bulk reef supply sells those slim reefbright 48 2 bulb kits I was going to get two of them side by side to sit in from of my radions closer to the front of the tank angling the reflectors back at the corals on the rock to help reduce shadowing.

What bulbs would be better to go with my radion schedule? I am thinking Blue + and Coral + but also read that the Blue + and True Actinic is a great combo also!
 
I'll be adding 4 48" T5s to my 3 Hydra 26HDs some time in the next few days. The schedule and spectrum I'm running over my 100g are very similar to yours. I'm going to start with two Blue Plus, one Coral Plus, and one Actinic, supplementing my LEDs for 15 minutes just before the beginning and again after the end of the currently programmed midday peak, and then gradually increase duration in both directions from there, depending on coral response. No idea if this is a good approach or not, but I'd rather add light too slow than too fast.
