Geismann or ATI Bulbs

I've used Geismann bulbs for years now but I'm considering switching to ATI. For those of you that made the switch, what's your thoughts? I have a 4 bulb fixture and I currently use 2- Aquablue plus and 2- Actinic Plus.

If I switch to ATI, what bulb combo would you recommend?

Thanks!!

Definitely make the switch to ATI if you need new bulbs. I would run 2 Blue+, one Purple Plus, and one Aquablue Special. If you like a really blue tank go with three Blue+ and one Purple+.

Couldn't have said it any better.
