Hey everyone, I'm running an Aquaticlife 36" in with AI Prime HD's. I have 2 ATI Blue Plus and 2 ATI Actinic.

My Primes are set to the Radion AB+ settings.

When the T5's are off the corals have a high def look, sharper and more clear. I need the T5's for the extra par.... When the T5's are on the tank becomes very blue, however it's not a crisp blue, rather a cloudy blue.

What are your thoughts on swapping out 1 Blue Plus for a Purple Plus? Other suggestions?

In my fixture with my ap700 I run two blue +, one purple +, and one coral +. I put the blues to the outside, and the coral plus and purple plus on the inside. This setup was suggested to me by @BoomCorals who uses the same setup over his frag tanks, and his sps corals look amazing.
