I run agua medic 6 light T5 my original light setup made my tank feel dark which was 2 lagoon blue, 2 pink and 2 actinic but that setup brought out the colours

My new setup I went for a brighter look

2 midday
1 actinic
1 pink
2 lagoon blue

My tank is much brighter which I like and have good coral growth but it is a softie tank too. The downside is because my tank is so bright I no longer see the colours pop out

but i will update once i get my new bulbs.


what bulb combo do you guys think will get the best results:

4 supper blues, 1 coral +, 1 Purple +
or
3 super blues, 2 new generations, 1 fiji purple

as these are the two setups im looking at

I believe it's more personal preference then anything. Sure different combos may give you a little better growth but I think for the most part it's just personal preference. But I would go with your first choice.
