I have 2 G6 XR15 Blue over a 75g with the aquatic t5 4 bulb fixture. Which 4 t5 bulbs would you use ? I have a lot of sticks at the top
 
I have 2 blue plus, 1 super purple , 1 super actinic , was thinking of switching to the coral plus
I have 3 smatfarm g5 leds combines with 4 t5 bulbs. T5s kick on from 12-7 and the leds are on 8am-8pm ramp up and ramp down. I supplement all my purples and blues from the leds and get that pop from the coral pigments. The t5s just add the extra par to make sure I'm hitting 90 on the sand bed and 400 at the top of the tank.

2x ati blue+
2x giesemann super actinic

prolly going to swap one of the actinics for a coral+
 
I run reef brite 50/50 and blue plus.
I've run them all in all configurations but the 50/50 is my favorite bulb.
I like a whiter tank.
 
I’m more zoa oriented with some sticks. I run 2 blue plus and a purple plus and a coral plus. I have some section with two purple plus and no coral plus, this section does really well.
