![]() Get a couple of blue actinic (any actinics really) for your sunrise/sunset and then get a fiji purple (do they still make those) and the rest, go with 12-20K bulbs.
Its really going to come down to the look you like the most yourself. Almost any 6 bulbs made by quality manufacturers will do a good job of maintaining the corals you have listed. |

![]() At this stage it comes with 6 HO T5 6500K white bulbs
I am going to put my new Blue and White 10k's in there with the other 4 whites for now See what happens Then I will move into the 12-20K and purple (not sure where to get those in Canada) Quote:

You might like it, you might not. best to try it out and then swap bulbs as you get a better sense for your personal preference. You can also put a post up here and see if any reefers near you have some older bulbs you can have for free or cheap to at least see how the colors look. many of us don;t even know what to do with old bulbs once they're past their prime.
