KZ's coral light has 6% of its spectrum in red so you may not need to run a fiji pruple with them. The fiji purple is a nice bulb but it can be overpowering in a 4 bulb set up. It makes your tank look a little purpleish. Either of these set ups will give you some good growth and color. Or you could mix them up like this.

KZ SUPER BLUE
ATI AQUA BLUE
KZ FIJI PURPLE
ATI BLUE PLUS

Any of these three are going to give you great results.

Thanks! Is that the order you would run them in?? I hate seeing them blue shadows i get now, One because there not good lights, two im probably running too many actinics looking at what your suggesting. I dont have to have a fiji purple, just thought it was one of those things that helped thats all.

He used to have a couple of fiji purples in the mix but hated them so took them out and opted for more of a growth spectrum with 10Ks, while balancing out with 22Ks and 15Ks, giving an overall 14/15K(ish) cast.
Thats funny. So being that you have that amazing wonderful powermodule with 6 slots on it to make it so beautiful, if you had to remove 2, which 2 would go? Thanks again.
