I'm planning on putting 4 two foot vho tubes on my 29 and was wondering what you recommend for the spectrums on the bulbs? I was thinking 2 aquasuns and 2 actinics....I've seen the 50/50 bulbs on tanks before and don't really care for the pink color they put off. I'm planning on a mixed reef, sps, lps, softies, etc. Thanks.
 
Hi,

I would say the majorirty of people go 2 blue and either 2 50/50 and 2 sun, so that should be no problem. If you wanted it even brighter, you could go 3 sun, but then i'm not sure if you have enough actinic. I run 2/2 on my home tank and has always done very well. I don't have any SPS, but everything else does very well.

thanks
