I currently have a hybrid setup with 4 T5 bulbs and 3 Hydra 26 HD running Saxby settings. I think the bulbs may be approaching the end of their life span soon so I'm starting to look at replacements. I currently have 2 blue plus, 1 coral plus and 1 actinic but I'm curious what others are using in similar set ups. So what do you use or would you use in this set up and why?
 
I prefer more of the deep sea blue so I run all ATI Blue+ bulbs
 
I think I like the spectrum of the blue plus and actinic better than the others. I get enough red/green/white from my leds.
 
I use 2 bp and 2 cp. I’m a big fan of this, but I like whiter rather than blue. Any mentioned are great options.

I run the same. They come on when my Kessil's are reaching their peak and stay on for 6 hours until the Kessil's start to ramp down, that's when the T5's go off.
