3 and 6 Aquablue Special

4 and 5 Aquablue Special and Coral Plus

So I run 2 Blue Plus, 3 Coral Plus and 3 Aquablue Special

Your mileage will vary

And you will probably notice I don't use any actinic bulbs

Don't fixate on lights !!!

How do you like the colour Greg? That's a really white bulb combo.

My original T5s made my tank look so dark and dungeon looking that the next order I went full on light bright which I quickly discovered was too bright so toned it down to current setup now I bought more lights and going to tone the brights down a lil more to put more emphasis on blue than bright see how that goes
