For those of you who have both halides and t5's what bulb combo's are you using. Currently I have 2x250hqi with phoenix bulbs. I am going to be adding 2x54 retro t5's and would like my corals to pop. What bulbs would you add? Would I be better off going with something other than the phoenix bulbs?

Thanks
 
First thing I'd do would be to get rid of the Phoenix bulbs, replace them with a good 10K like a Reeflux, add some Giesseman T-5 actinic plus 460nm T-5's and call it a done deal... lol jmo
 
I have a hamilton light fixture with 3x250 watt 10ks

and 2 x 80 watt T-5.....I used to use hamiltons "ice white" T-5 bulbs, I switched to the bluest bulb they have and now everything pops like never before
 
I've been thinking about the reeflux 12k and supplementing them with 2 blue+ or a blue+ and something else. Any suggestions?

Does the reeflux 10k have any yellow to it?
