T5 bulb combos and biotek led T5 tubes

[Eric23]

So one of my kessil crapped out and I decided to go back to T-5's because I'm tired of all the shadowing from my A360we's ..... I have a 6 lamp ati sunpower and I'm thinking of going with a combo of 4 ati T-5's and 2 of biotek Marines led T5 tubes but I'm not sure what color tubes to get ???? Another option is to go with 4 T-5's and a nanobox retrofit ? Any and all advice much appreciated

If the biotek tubes are the same as the E5's tubes then pass them up. Used 2 E5 Blue Pop tubes when I was running a 10 bulb t5 unit. Total waste of money and corals hated them. My rainbow bta hid for a month and did not add shimmer. Finally took it apart and all it had inside the tubes were those tiny led thin tape strips that you can buy at Home Depot in the long rolls.
Running a Kessil a80/t5 hybird and could not be happier. Got the Kessil shimmer with the t5 fill in/par and all carols are loving it.
