can I see your 4bulb t5 set-up

[m_wonnacott]

I am going to be setting up a 75 gal with a think a 4 bulk tek light (may decide to go ATI if I can get one in Canada) and am trying to decide on a bulb combo.

Posted a question in the T5 thred and this is one idea I got back
3 ATI Blue Plus and a UVL Actinic White. Kinda a more 20K look

But I seem to be having a hard time finding the ATI stuff in canada so they said to go with Giesemann Actinic Plus.

Would love to see those 4 bulb set-ups and what you are using for bulbs. Also if ya know where to get ATi in canada that would be great too

I have the 3 ATI Blue Plus and a UVL Actinic White on a Current USA sundial fixture. Its not as blue in person, but it is blue. I think the sand throws off the balance in my point and shoot. This is it on a 40breeder.

You heard right. You would have a very hard time seeing the difference between Actinic Plus and the Blue+. So if you like that (3 blue, 1 white) color then go with Giesemann.

The best looking 4 lamp setup I have seen is:

2 ATI Blue+ (gman=actinic plus)
1 KZ Fiji Purple
1 ATI Blue Special (gman=aquablue)

hmm not sure I have seen the KZ before being in Canada some bulbs are harder to get

Took this a couple of weeks ago.

Just replaced 2 UVL super actinics with ATI blue pluses. The other 2 are UVL aquasuns. I saw a huge difference. Love it.
