Hey, my 6 bulb tek fixture should be here tomorrow! I also have a 90 gallon. I don't think there is a best bulb combination, it just depends on what you like. This is what I'm going with:

FRONT
ATI Blue+
ATI Aquablue
ATI Coral+
ATI Blue+
ATI Coral+
ATI Blue+
BACK

not to thread hijack.. is there a difference in what order you put the bulbs in relation to front to back? and if there is, what is the reasoning behind it.. only reason im asking is that i have a 6 bulb fixture and am going to be using it soon and need to start thinking about bulbs
