How's it going, thought I'd see if some of u guys could help me out. I have a DIY fixture I built on my 180g tank (6'x2'x2'). It's 90-3w Bridgelux LEDs and 4-80w t5s.
For the LEDs, I'm running 80 royal blues and 8 whites and 2 420nm. (I kept a few white LEDs so that during my "sunrise/sunset" the tank is not 100% blue LEDs)
For the t5s, I'm running 2-ATI blue+ and 2 ATI-coral+. I really like the color, it's a nice 14k. I'm just wondering if I could mix up the bulbs a little to improve the fixture.
I was originally thinking of adding a purple + or a Kz Fiji purple, but i feel the royal blue LEDs give off a purplish/blue color as it is. And I don't want my tank to be super purple.
Wondering if I should ditch a coral+ and add an actinic or what if I added a blue from another company. Like geismann or KZ. Is there another company that has a nice blue t5 bulb?
Any suggestions or tips would be great. I know it's kinda hard because its a custom light fixture, but i could probably benefit from a a little brainstorming.
Gracias
