are you running "full zeo" Ryan?.........IMO aquascience is the way to go.....they out par both KZ and ATI bulbs.......I will throw out the obligatory warning about the fiji purple bulbs(algae)....you will get better growth out of a lower K bulb.......run some Giessemann middays (6700) and you will get wicked growth, both coral and algae...the flip side is they are incredibly "yellow" looking

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 http://www.korallenriff.de/download/T5-1.pdf 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.
