    ati blue +
    ati Aquablue special
    ati blue +
    ati super actinics
    ati coral+
    ati blue+

    Combo 2:

    i love the purple and the corals. i tried alot of combos over the years and didnt like the AB special in there at all because it was too white.

    this was my fav

    b+
    c+
    b+
    p+
    c+
    b+

    but then i got tired of buying new bulbs and just got an LED....

    My setup (front to back) is

    ATI Actinic
    ATI Aquablue Special
    ATI Blue Plus
    ATI Blue Plus
    ATI Purple Plus
    ATI Aquablue Special


    With what I have, it isn't as blue as the tank in the picture
