Hello everyone! This will be my first ever post!

I am currently running a 90 gallon set up with a 48" aquatic life quad bulb light fixture.

My question is, what is the best mix of bulbs to get my corals to both look good and thrive?

I have done a little bit of research and think I'm leaning towards the ati series bulbs, specifically the blue plus and purple plus.

Thanks in advance!

I use the Blue Plus and the Coral Plus from ATI. I have also used KZ bulbs that were very good too. Just more pricey. I like to add the coral plus to the spectrum as I have found my corals like this better. This is in my 40g where I have almost exlusively LPS and zoas and my 6 g that has sps, lps and zoas. I use ATI blue plus to supplement my MH on my large tank with gorgs and nems.

Ok, thanks for your reply and advice! I've got a bunch of acro frags and random corals here and there both hard and softies. Do you happen to have a picture of the tank pdt?
