Enough Light and right K

[Ryan]

Ya there is alot of blue in there. Not to mention I dont have any white balance on my camera.

I like the color I have now so I am wondering if I swap out 2 of the bulbs could I supplement extra bulbs with more blue without any ill effect on the corals?

I run one Purple one Actinic and two daylights 24W as well.
I have birdsnest, cap, and digi in there but they do much better under my MH in my SPS tank. Also have some LPS and zoe's in there. The 10,000 should help to have them grow a bit better. I would think they will do better under that combo as opposed to all that blue.

Alright. I might have to hold off until I pick up my big tank. I didnt want to use MH on this one because of the Evaporation. I am already doing enough top up daily its so dry here.

ditch 1 purple and the atinic for some 10k's then you shouldnt lose the nice blue tint but still get better power,

i agree with keeping the sps as up high as possible, how deep is your tank

You should be fine with the suggested bulb changes. I have a similar set up with 2 actinic bulbs, one 16,000k bulb and one 10,000k bulb. I have a couple of frags of SPS doing great. One is a deep green monti, two blue acros and one pink birdsnest. All were brown when I got them and all are colouring up nicely.

I totally agree with what was said above.
