The look actually now reminds me of my old radiums.

Try throwing an actinic in the other slot and see what you think. It will add in spectrum below the blues used in the AI fixtures. I feel this is the spectrum that will vastly improve LED setups along with the small portion of red found in the purple T5 bulbs.
