VHO lighting

timone321 · 04/11/2007, 03:47 PM

i was just wanting to get some opinions of people who use VHO lighting as to what bulbs i should put into a 4x36" for the best colors output possible. i primarily have LPS, softies, and soon to be a little bit of SPS.

thanks

I would use 2-URI super actinics & 2- URI actinic whites. Thats what i always used. You can also sub an actinic white for 6500k NO bulb fora more balanced white look.
