Simple or Weird question?
I have a 4 bulb Aquatic Life T5 fixture with 2 ATI Blue Plus and 2 ATI Coral Plus bulbs.
(No LEDS in it at this time)
How would you arrange? It might now matter, but what would have better look?
I grow all soft corals - 90% Zoanthids.

Front to back
1. Blue+ Coral+ Blue+ Coral+
2. Coral+ Blue+ Blue+ Coral+
3. Blue+ Coral+ Coral+ Blue+
4. Coral+ Blue+ Coral+ Blue+

Thoughts?
and Thank you
 
It should all blend together that you'd be hard pressed to distinguish one from the other, I'd think...

Try all four combos and see what you think works best?

In terms of performance; unless you have a dramatic setup of some type (such as giant mountains of rock in the middle with coral on both sides or the like), then it shouldn't make much difference. I'd interleave them anyways, though (1 or 4), just to spread the spectrum as best as possible.
