t5 question - need to "blue" my tank - blue plus or actinic?
I am currently running 10,000k 54W t5's on my 90, and the tank looks very yellow to me. I was debating on changing 2 of the bulbs (6 bulb setup) with a blue plus and an actinic. Is this a good approach or should I go with 2 blue plus or 2 actinic?

change 3 bulbs to bluer spectrums
2 may not get the desired amount of blue, but, this is purely subjective. i would try one UVL SA and 2 ati actinic + or if you only want to swap 2 of the 10ks, then go 1 UVL SA, and 1 ati actinic +
