My VHO actinics need replaced due to age. I have 2 x 250w 14k mh and 2 x uvl super actinc over a 90g. I'm wondering if I should stay with the super actinics or if there would be any advantage to another color bulb.

Any thoughts out there?

If you like a little more blue, you might try one 03 super actinic and one 454 bulb.

Do you think it matters what order they are in? Put the 454 in the front?

Probably does not matter. The 454 is a true blue vs the violet in the super actinic. The super actinic will florese (sp) your corals more but the blue has more par. I think I have my 454 in front of the 03.
