How pink? For a full blown pink color use UVL Actinic Whites. For a planted tank use UVL Aquasuns. For a pink tint to a reef use 2 ATI Blue Plus and 2 UVL Actinic White.
Thank you very much Grim ! Will keep these combos noted.

The lights you told me to buy will aid in spawning then right? So here's my plan with the lighting the two blues on for 10-12 hours and in those 10-12 hours have all the lights on together for about 4 hrs and increasing to about 8 when the tank becomes acclimated. Does that sound ok?
Hi Grim, a couple of weeks ago I asked you about A T5 light for my 60 inch 100 gallon for LPS and such you told me 6x54 would, is it ok that it is only 48 inches and what would you recommend for the bulbs?
Here is the threadhttp://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1763963
Ok Grim One last Question Sorry just trying to get a better Idea and what I should go with.
In my previous post I wanted to go with 3 ATI Blue Plus, 2x Aqua Blue Special and 1 Fiji Purple, Now just researching can I go with 3x ATI Blue Plus, 2 UVL 75/25 14K, and 1x Fiji Purple?
Would this be too much or just not enough par for growth? Sorry just trying to get a good combo and run with it. Having T-5's for over a year and since I am switching to SPS trying to get a better idea and what works best.
Thanks
Frankie
Hey guys,
Soon I will fire up my 90 gal system. It has a canopy which can be unused if needed. Im going with the ATI 48" 6x54W sunpower. I want to grow SPS and clams. What combo suits me best? Without sacrificing integrity of growth, I'm looking for a blue/purple pop.
I was thinking
ATI Blue Plus
UVL aquablue
ATI Blue Plus
UVL Actinic White
ATI Blue Plus
ATI Blue Plus
Another question grim
My 100 gallon tank does not have an entirely open top I guess it is euro braced, it has a rim around it that is about 4 inches thick of clear acrylic and then another strip through the middle will a 6 bulb fixture still work with that?
Stick with the first mix you listed
I am going to replace my bulbs. I have 2x 36" and am going to add a third. I will need enough light for maxima and crocea in 45 gallon tank which is 24" deep, but am primarily concerned with color. Which bulbs?
new to t5 and have always ran halides,im either going to run the tek 6x39 or a ATI 6x39.right now i run a 250w 20k radium and two 24" vho actinics,id like to get a similar color from t5 but would possibly like to add some red spectrum in as well.what bulb combo would you use?it will be mainly sps and the tank is an ocanic 57g rimless.
AquaVim T5 fixtures? I haven't found much info or opinions on them and the search here came up with nothing. I haven't found much technical info either. I need an 8x39w for my 17" high tank and they make one for a reasonable price. Anyone have any experience with their T5 fixtures they can share?
I no of no fixture I consider high quality that has moonlights.
