T5 Bulb combo

[KJHLCH]

I'm ready to get the bulbs for my t5 retro light. It is a 4x24 and I was wondering what combo to get? Any suggestions would be helpful. I was thinking of a dusk and dawn setting as well. Thank you:fish2:

I like to run (2) ati blue + (1) uv lighting super actinic and (1) uv lighitng aquasun.

There will be many combinations with all the t-5 lamps out there.

So I would need to put both ati blue+ on one ballast and the other two on another ballast. This will give me the dusk and dawn setting I'm looking for. How long should the dusk and dawn be on, before and after daylight?

That's what I run. :beer:

I use the two blue+ bulbs for dusk/dawn.
