Ok haha im thoroughly confused without actually being able to see the color, sorry I came from LED's to this tank so still trying to figure out T5's. So the setup I was thinking with 3 Blue +, 2 Purple + and a Coral Plus should produce something in the 14-15000K range right? I'm 99% that's the combo I want just waiting to hit the order button lol ]]> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 20:38:32 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63744&PID=518708&title=ati-bulb-combination#518708 <![CDATA[ATI bulb combination??? : Fishfinder07 wrote:So is the...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63744&PID=518703&title=ati-bulb-combination#518703 Author: Ryan Thompson

The coral plus is more blue and WAY better than the aquablue IMO.

For six bulbs I really like four blue plus and two purple plus. I recently bought a kz superblue to try out and like it more than the blue plus. The blue plus bulbs have gone more green and I don't like it. The superblue is a deeper blue and fluoresces colors better. ]]> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 20:25:43 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63744&PID=518703&title=ati-bulb-combination#518703 <![CDATA[ATI bulb combination??? : So is the coral plus too white...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63744&PID=518701&title=ati-bulb-combination#518701 Author: Fishfinder07

I'm running 8 bulbs with 4 blue +, 2 purple +, 1 coral + and 1 aquablue special. Next time, I'll run 2 aquablue special instead of the coral +. ]]> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 20:15:59 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63744&PID=518699&title=ati-bulb-combination#518699 <![CDATA[ATI bulb combination??? : Thank you for the response.

Thank you for the response. I think I'm gonna do the 3xblue plus, 2x purple plus and one coral plus. That should have a nice white balance but still get the color pop as well right? I should have specified better before I like a blue tint but not the full blown washed out blue look. ]]> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 20:10:56 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63744&PID=518698&title=ati-bulb-combination#518698 <![CDATA[ATI bulb combination??? : I would try 4 blue+ and 2 purple+...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63744&PID=518693&title=ati-bulb-combination#518693 Author: badfinger

I would try 4 blue+ and 2 purple+ if you like a bluer look..... buy the coral+ bulb, and then if you don't like how blue replace a blue+.... but if your going say 3 blue+, 2purple+ and a coral+ it would be a more 50/50 look]]> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 19:58:26 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63744&PID=518693&title=ati-bulb-combination#518693 <![CDATA[ATI bulb combination??? : Bump!

I need help picking out ATI bulbs for my RSM 250. I prefer a bluish look to the tank so right now I'm thinking 2x Coral Plus, 2x Purple Plus and one each of Blue Plus and a True Actinic. Anyone have any other suggestions or do u think this will give the desired look. Thank you in advance. ]]> Mon, 15 Apr 2013 15:49:54 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63744&PID=518640&title=ati-bulb-combination#518640
