T5 bulb suggestions? Too white
Just purchased AquaticLife 30" T5 HO dual fixture. It came with a 10,000k white and a 420/460nm blue. I don't really like the way it looks its too white. What do I buy to get more blue color or purple?

The only problem I see with getting rid of the 10k is depending on what coral you wish to keep you may be lacking in correct light.

Get an ATI Coral+ and an ATI Blue/Purple+. Just choose the blue for a bluer look, or the purple for a more red/pink/purple look. It's all up to your tastes.
