Thanks!
I am using a 12 bulb Sfiligoi T5 fixture. I took out the middle 4 bulbs and replaced them with a 250w metal halide.
4 ATI Blue+ that run for 12hours
3 ATI Blue+ and 1 Fiji Pink that run for 9.5 hours
and the Halide runs for 7.5 hours.
The lights follow the lunar cycle along with my moon lights. I find I get the nicest colours with this combination and everything seems to grow fairly quick as well. Im getting roughly 650 par on the shelf in the middle where the clam and forest fire digi are.
I tried to change to a 14k ushio but found the par readings were far to high and I just burnt everything under it...
