Quick Lighting Question

My lighting fixture has 2 MH bulbs in the middle and 2 T5 bulbs, one in the front, and one in the back. Many articles I have read talk about mixing different T5's for optimal coloration. For instance ATI suggests mixing their "Pro-Color" T5's with their "Blue Plus" T5's to bring out more colors. (The Pro-Color brings out non-florecent pigments, Blue Plus brings out florecent pigments) If I only have room for 2 T5's, is this worth doing or should I pick one type over the other and stick to that? If I went with one Pro-Color and one Blue Plus, would that look ok or would I be short on Blue light to make the florecents pop?

Any advice would be helpful, thanks.
 
Those articles are referring to 5 or more t-5' 's being used . It would look odd with just the t5's on . What brand /color halides are you using now ? In the end it may blend when all lights are on . ime I would stick with just the blue plus .
 
I'm currently running 2x 250W reeflux 10k's I believe. I honestly don't know if just two T5's will make any difference no matter what I use while the MH's are on lol.
