Ok, so... 20 gallon mixed reef. I love a blue-purple look because it brings out the colors of my acros. I have 4x24W T5HO. Current bulbs.
Blue+
Coral+
Aquablue Special
Blue+
All of the high light requiring acros are doing great! Good growth and color. BUT with this combo of bulbs it still isn't as "blue-purple" as I like. I look at the SPS and I know they can be a little more colourful under a more blue light, but I still want to have good growth, so this is the combo I was thinking.
Coral+
Coral+
Blue+
Coral+
So, I will have 3 full spectrum bulbs rather just 2. Eventhough the coral+ are a full spectrum bulb, you think it will be the right spectrum for my acros to keep growing? I turned on only the Coral+ and Blue+ bulbs in my fixture and LOVED the look. The coral+ bulb doesn't look "white" to me. So will the removal of the aquablue special be able to be substatised by 2 coral+ bulbs without any problems?
