Just felt like I needed to repost with the white balance corrected. Didn't realize the features I had on my camera phone!

Glad I found this thread! I had radions on my last tank. Just started a new build and went with ATI 6 bulb dimmable and 2 reefbrites. The bulb combo I ordered (Just placed the order yesterday) was for 4 blue +, 1 coral +, and purple +. Does anyone have that bulb combo? Would love to see a pic

Any thoughts on how efficient ati bulbs will work in a fixture that's not an ati fixture let's say maybe odyssea fixture?

Beware of Odyssea fixtures, they are very cheap, sometimes they us normal output t-5 not HO, they have low output, ballast die fast and sometimes start of fires. I can not believe they still sell these.

It just got unplugged and put in a box. I hope to take some pics in a few months like the ones on this thread
