Hey Grim, rtparty and other T5 gurus!!
I haven't been keeping up with the T5 trends but it's been a year and time to replace my bulbs. I have an 8 bulb ATI PM and have been happy with this combo for the past year
4 blue+, two KZ fiji, two ATI pure actinic (If i recall correctly, it's the 20k bulb).
I put the 20k bulbs in the middle of my fixture where my corals have grown high in the tank, I like the different spectrum that they add that seems to be different visually than the blue+.
So a couple questions.
1. I'm seeing the purple plus reccomended where as about a year ago the KZ Fiji was king. Has the king been dethroned? Better PAR?
2. Any reccomendations on a 20 or 22k bulb? Overall I like the 20k look to my tank and the KZ's wash out the blue+ and 20k bulbs without looking pink or purple in my tank. Honestly IMHO my tank looks 15k ish to me, not super blue at all.
