Tek light question???

[Tyrrell109]

I have been thinking of getting a 24" 4 bulbTek fixture for my moded 29bcHQI. I keep all Lps, and some rics, acans. Will this fixture be enough for the nems I have in the tank?
Also what bulb combo works good for this type of set-up? I really want the corals to pop.

Any help is appreciated.

You don't mention what nems you have in the tank, that you're asking about.

2X ATI Blue Plus
2X ATI Aquablue Special

This will be a great combination, allowing you to grow just about any corals you want. Should give you about a 14K look.

Disagree on the bulb combo, that will be very very white. The AB Special, in my experience, washes out corals badly.

If you really want corals to pop:

Blue+
Fiji Purple or Purple+
Super Actinic
Blue+

The Fiji Purple is sort of a daylight bulb, so the tank won't be too blue. Still quite blue though.
