T5 bulbs

[jordan10]

Hi all I just ordered a t5 fixture to go with my leds. Was wondering if any one know what bulbs will give u that nice blue look. Like u get with the LED?

the actinic will give you white

I have an ati 8 bulb t5 fixture, and I have 4 blue plus, 2 coral plus, and 2 actinic. Love the color.. Nice and clean blue look without it being washed out in blue.

I think any variation of that combo looks nice.

Thanks I'll probably try 2 blue plus and 2 actinics

I just put up my ati 60” hybrid with my 52hd. I ran 2 coral plus on outside and 1blue plus and a purple on inside. I am using the led for blues. Color is nice, but I also have and acitinic I may swap for the purple
