Well time is coming for a bulb change again. I have done the ati blue and blue plus a split of 4 and 4 last time and well was pretty happy with the results. This time i went with 2 fiji purple, 2 super blues, 2 kz new gen, and 2 coral lite.

So for the 8 bulbs this time i am on the fence. Obviously want the best colour and growth options. I know this has been asked and discussed tons of times but i cant seems to find the old threads.

I personally would just replace one of the fiji purples with a new gen and say you have a sweet combo. more than 1 of them and your risking having a pink lite tank

The first combo must have been way bluer than the second one...which color did you prefer? I also think 2 Fiji Purples is too much...they are quite overpowering imo!

How about somewhere in between...?

ATI BluePlus
KZ New Gen
KZ Fiji Purple
UVL 454 or UVL Super Actinic (my fav bulbs for supplementals) or ATI BluePlus
KZ New Gen
ATI BluePlus
