suggestions on T5ho bulbs

[young_skywalker]

I'm planning on switching my fixture from PCs to T5ho. I was planning on running 4 bulbs over the tank (which is a mixed reef in progress). I was wondering what bulbs you guys might suggest for the tank. My lfs only carries 18k or true actinics so I'm guessing I will probably have to order online.

uri or giesemann powerchrome. check out www.sunlightsupply.com. they dont sell to the public but they do have the info on them. hope that helps

giessmann bulbs are awesome, also ATI are good, imo, both are better than URI.

dont waste your time with the true actinic, get a combination of actinic +, and aquablue (a 10k daylight bulb)

you get more color and par for your corals with the actinic+ compared to the pure actinic.

what is this "actinic +" you speak of
