Sam remember these tests are an ideal test condition not a real world application. and a few people have found that certain bulbs preform different from the published tests when used in actual tanks. remember the saying if it ain't broke don't fix it.. I have a hard time listening to that also but if you are happy with your tank why change? the SA bulb while I am used to them now are not as white as I would like but like I said I am used to the green tinge now and until they need replacing they will stay. I am going to try adding new actinic to the tank and see if I can make them more appealing to my eye as this would be cheaper than buying new AB bulbs.
now if there is a different reason you want to switch setups let us know so we know whats your thinking
