Actinics
 
Im wondering if anyone uses Korallen-Zucht 39W Fiji Purple as actinics on ther tank. If posible to post a picture because I am probably going to use thes as actinics on my 46 gal sps tank.

Way too white/red to be used as actinic IMO.

I use the Fiji Purple, but not as my specific actinic bulb...I suppliment with real 420nm bulbs.

Here is a picture of my tank (don't mind the hoses going up the front) when just the Fiji Purple and one painful Coralife 65w PC bulb were working.

At the time I had an ugly mod to the light so it reflected the Fiji purple bulb more to the rear of the tank than I liked. It got some great "pop" out of my corals though.
