need a true actinic bulb, the one that is more purple color and 48" long. fixture has 5 bulbs right now 3 of them are ATI 12000k and 2 are blue actnic but the fixture itself is aquactinics tx5 and is super bright i think i might need to tone it down and replace a 12k bulb with true actnic bulb. Need some advice only corals i keep in this tank is lps, zoas, palys, and ricordea.

should i go with 2 12k and 2 blue actinic and 1 true actinic(purple)
or with 3 12k and 1 blue actnic and 1 true actinic

what kind of bulb configuration does everyone else use that has t5's.
 
I run 4 giesman 36 inch 2 aqua blues (11k) and 2 actinic plus... not sure of the k on this its actinic plus some white i believe
 
planet reef for sure has T5HO because I bought two there

last time I was at MS shopping for bulbs (probably 4 months ago) they only had T5NO
