Yeah, and 4 bulbs are better than 3. If you need an area with less light a few sections of window screen layered over top of each other would work wonders.
Does water always taste like salt and poo????

That's an easy call.......4:D You already have the ballast for it, pretty cheap to go to 4 bulbs.

I would think you could add the Fiji Purple (to try) or another blue plus. I have a 6 bulb tek fixture and I got that one because I can always decrease PAR by playing with the lights or increase it. You have more flexibility with additional bulbs.

Ya, it would only cost $70 bucks to add a fourth bulb, but then again I could buy say a nice favia or something insteadOriginally Posted by Rabidgoose

I vote 4 as well, do AB Special and Blue + skip the GE, unless you want to grow Chaeato, then it is an AWESOME choice.

I would do 4. I am liking the UVL 75/25. Kinda like 14k. If you combine it with other bluer bulbs it is quite cool. Seems to make reds pop.

Who make the Fiji Purple I can't seem to find it, well at least at the three online spots I purchase from.
So the over all feeling is that the ATI Blue Plus and Blue Special are the way to go, 2 and 2 of each?
