best t5 bulb combo

[rpc07]

I have a 55 gal tank with an aquaticlife 4x54 t5 set up on it and i am currently using the bulbs it came with which are 2 generic actinic and 2 10k. It is bright but yellowish i am trying to achieve that blueish tint while the main lights are on what do you guys recommend i go with

IMO
2xBlue+
1xAquablue special
1xFiji purple


If you don't like a 20k look replace the AB special with a ge65k

1 super actinic
1 aquablue + 15k
1 actinic blue plus
1 fiji purple
to get a blueish 15k look

My new lens came faster than I thought:bigeyes2:

I have a 6 bulb setup but the first pic is only with 4 bulbs on (2 blue+, 1 Fiji purple, 1 GE65k) Second pic is with all the bulbs on (Add 2 blue+ to previous combo)

dude your tank look really good why did u change the structure?
personally my corals are really liking the new coralife bulbs. im just running 2 coralife actinic(the stock actinics are now purple only, they dont have a blue anymore) 1 current usa blue actinic and coralife 10k and my reef is much happier then the stock bulbs i got with it. again amazing looking tank, i love the set up

What brand bulbs are these that your talking about because your picture is pretty much what im going for I just bought a powerchrome aquablue + Is that the same as the Blue+ your talking about?

Thanks for the comments guys.

rpc07, blue+ is ATI (different than aquablue+), purple is by KZ, and GE makes the 65k. I ordered all of them from Reefgeek.com
