not saying colors change, however lock at this video, and you see what only the bulb will do for you (just some interesting comparison)

Wayne, some nice growth on your sps, also a well played move picking up the hybrid... Your colors will surely improve overtime. I've always enjoyed looking at sps under T5, the colors remind me of cosmic bowling where everything glows and pops. Looking foward to more pics as time progresses.

Chris, thanks! It's just been a bit over two weeks and I finally get it! Lol. There is just no substitution for t5. The mitras came close but that's where it ends. The hybrids comes with LEDs and are great for supplementing themt5s. What I am seeing are not necessary new colours but colours that had been washed out under the LEDs.

Anyways, here are a few new macros with the hybrids... Pics are so much warmer then just LEDs.

The change over from pure LED to T5 and LED has been quite positive. One coral that has been most noticeable is the DV Northern Delight....

Under the Mitras...


Under the ATI Hybrid...
