Would like some suggestions on what 2 bulb combo I should go with.

Currently running Ai Vega and Ai Hydra 52 on a 110G tank (4 feet) and would like to supplement my acros with some T5's as I've been having some coloration issues.

Current lighting schedule

ATI purple plus and blue plus work well. If you are looking for more PAR The Blue plus is great for this. I use two 60" of each for my Peak time. If you want the more blue look stick to the ATI blue plus as the ATI Purple plus add more red into the mix. I run the Hydra 52 and this combo works great.

Thanks will give that combo a try.
 
I tried the Purple Plus and Blue Plus combo and it was way to Purple/Red for my liking. I pulled the bulb within 5 mins.

I ended up with Coral Plus in the front and Blue Plus in the back. I personally love that combo.

I have 3 AI Vega Colors over my 150g 4'x3' tank and am also going with the 2Coral+ and 2Blue+ bulb combo with the LET 4' retro kit.
 
I run radions and I supplement with 1 blue+ and 1 coral+. I was going for more of a full spectrum look. I may add 2 more just for kicks. If so I plan on B+, AB+ or G Azure, Purple, B+. I like a whiter 14K look and combined with my radions set at around 13-14K the combo I currently run is a nice crisp white. I would post a pic but I don't have a recent one and iphone pics are way too blue.
