Ok guys about to order bulbs. I have a deep blue 80 shallow tank. 16 inches tall. I have a 4 bulb aquatic life. Heres what im thinking....


Daytime...AKA WHITES- 1 Aquablue special OR coral plus and a blue plus
Blues... 1 purple plus and one blue plus...

What do you think? is the aquablue more blue than the coral plus? this is my first t5 purchase


This is a mostly ZOA DOMINANT TANK!

The aquablue is more along the lines of a 10k bulb.

What overall look are you going for? 10k, 14k, 18k, 20k?

A aquablue special with a purple+ is basically a coral+. So i would go with 1 aquaspecial and 1 coralplus (for the whites) and blue+ or actinic for your blues

I like the look or 2 blue+, 1 coral plus, and one purple plus

I dont know the difference im new to it. I want my zoas to pop in color and i guess a more blue look will work. But also want growth!
