What 4 Bulb T5 Combination Do You Run!?!?

[subielover]

Korallen Zucht all the WAYY!

Way overpriced, especially when you consider how good ATI bulbs are. The KZ fiji purple has to be losing a ton of ground since the new ati purple plus came out, I have run both and can't tell the difference.

I think I'm gonna order 2-blue plus, 1-aqua blue sp., and the purple plus. Seems to be what most folks like on here, so I'll give it a shot.

I love ATI hahah had to say that. I have 6bulb fixture but none the less i would go front to back aquablue special. blue +, true actinic, aquablue special

 

[Alattner]

i would run two aquablue special one blue plus and one true actinic all from ATI

No offense, but is this advice you're giving, or is it what you would run if you had a four bulb t5 fixture?

I just ordered a purple+ and an aquablue special to go along with my 2 blue+ bulbs. If it's too "white" what should I swap in for the aquablue?

 

[whyzee429]

I just received my new purple plus and aquablue special t5s! Yeah! My question is this: 2 t5s come on before the final 2, just like with most of your setups. Should I have the Purple+ and Blue+ come on before the other blue+ and Aquablue? How would you arrange it?
Also, is it just me or do the blue+ bulbs almost seem too bright to be the first ones on? I know people use actinics to lead into "daylight" but these bulbs are insane! :) I'd be pretty grumpy if those lights came on above me while I was sleeping :)
My bulbs are all 48" 54w.
