It isn't an actinic bulb so it has more PAR yet it fluoresces corals quite nicely, similar to an actinic. I use them (KZ superblues) as accents on my Halide+T5 fixture. Just something for your consideration :-)

Also, I didn't know that T5 bulbs varied that much in price?
Thanks for the insight kien

Yah KZs are always $10+ more than ATI. Kinda bumpy!
