Thanks Oceanic corals. I wanted to go with the actinics so the colors pop. Thats one complaint I have about this halide I thought I would be okay with. I get good growth but the colors are not as nice as they should be.

Doug I am not using the reactor as I dont have a sump. I am doing
PIF 1drp/day
Sponge Power 1drp/day
Amminoacids 1drp/day
coral vitalizer 1drp/day
Food7 1drp/2nd day
BAK 1drp/2nd day
Start2 0.2ml/day
Coralsnow 1ml/day

I have also started with the TA Pottassium 5ml/week

I have thought about the aquascience bulbs after reading this article

Mike has a really nice look to his tank and he has 5 actinic and 3 daylight bulbs. He gets pretty good growth but i dont want to go that blue. I was thinking 4bulb/4bulb split or 5day/3actinic split.
