Some more T5 help

setting up my 90 gallon next week and ready to buy some new lights

I thinking about going really blue to help all the coral pop but I want some white to help with growth also please help I have checked out all the Q&A on t-5 and other posts this is what I am thinking of

4 ATI 54w Blue plus
1 ATi 54w True Actinic
1 KZ 54w Fiji Purple
1 UVL 12000k Actinic white 50/50
1 54w ATI 12000k Aqua Blue Special


Please any help will do

 

8 lamps over a 90 huh? Thats going to be alot of light... Is this a fixture or retro?

I would skip the UVL in favor of another AB+ personally.

Keep in mind your overly blue tank will wash out reds and similar colors... The Fiji Purple will help but sometimes too much blue will just over power. You might want to use a 6000k in favor of the UVL as well.

 

Fixture

Its a current setup that i took and apart and mount in my canopy yah I kinda worried about all the blue also when i got the light new it was half and half actinic and whites

 

Its an 8 lamp current unit? It might work being that blue if you use a lower kelvin to help bring out the reds and so on.

 

So you would do two specials and maybe one less blue plus and add a 6000k daytime

 

With 8 lamps I would run if you want blue 4 Blue+, 2 AB+ 1 FJ purple and a 6000k..

I am planning on switching to 3B+, 1 FJP, 2AB+ and 2 6000k but I want a little more emmph and a little less blue heavy, even though I secretly love it when only my blue lamps are on....
