I was confused as to what the bulbs would really look like over my corals... This descriptive video and especially the side-by-side comparison of the bulbs was exactly what I was hoping to find. THANK YOU! I feel much more confident in ordering my bulbs now.

I just replaced my stock Coralife T5 10,000K bulb with a Fluval 18,000K bulb and it is much brighter. My LPS brain coral looks much happier now. I'm thinking about replacing my Coralife Actinic bulb with an ATI Actinic bulb because it's obvious to me now that the Coralife bulbs that came with my fixture are subpar. When I first got my 24" fixture for my 5 gallon tank, I was very disappointed at the brightness. I'm also supplementing my fixture with two Glo Fish blue LED bars mounted on my T5 fixtures legs. I don't know if the blue LED's do anything other than add a slight tint of blue to my lighting. Thanks for the video! I got the Fluval bulb because it was an impulse purchase at my LFS. I was originally going to get ATI bulbs all around.

Than, We use a combo in our quad T5 fixture. Two true actinic, A single 10K and a single Purple plus. With histograms and spectral charts we feel this gives us the best spread of spectrum with a focus on the photo synthetic side!

The fixture will have 1 purple plus, 1 coral plus, and 2 blue plus bulbs. I will be documenting how well my mixed reef tank adjusts and grows after switching to the HO T5 fixture.

Hey Stan great vids, love them all. I really enjoyed this vid because I run 6-48 in t5's in my tank. And I love the way this t5's looked and the different bulb selection.. I use the giesemann bulbs. I have 3- atinic plus, 1- blue lagoon, and 2- midday. Also I have a economic 48 in panorama white and atinic that are controlled to do the sunrise and sunset with moon lights. I have seen great growth with t5's on my sps. But I would like for you to help me with what bulbs are better or what combination should I use. Pls thnx.

Hello. I need your advice, I have Giesemann Aurora hybrid unit above my SPS tank. I need 4 bulb for my Aurora . What is the best combination bulb color to achieve best growth and shining for all kinds of coral especially SPS ? NOTE : I am looking for the strengthening coral color and accelerate the growth if it is possible. Thanks. Waiting for your professional advice.
