I have an 80g shallow reef (16" deep) with just softies and lps. I'm currently running a 4 bulb t5ho with 2 blue+, 1 purple+, and 1 coral+ I used to run black box leds and while I love the t5s I miss that blue actinic. Should I just add a actinic led like the Reef Bright lumi led or replace a blue+ bulb with the Ati true actinic?? I'm leaning towards the led but would love some more input. Thanks!
