90 gallon with 4-t5's

i have a 90 gallon with a 4b t5 fixture and was wondering if i upgrade to uvi bulbs if i would be able to keep some zoa's and mushrooms. i plan on upgrading to a tek5 6 bulb in a couple moths but want some color in my tank until then.

 

i like Ricordias also

 

you can keep all them now with your current system.

 

thanks

 

You mean UVL lamps?

I would go ATI or Giesemann prior to UVL but that is just me...

 

how about 2 ATI Aquablue Special and 2 ATI True Actinic

 

You'll get better output from 2 Aquablues and 2 Blue Plus and still have good color. The ATI true actinics have pretty low output. For zoas and mushrooms either choice should be good though I think.

 

what about 2 Powerchrome AquaBlue+ and 2 Powerchrome Actinic Plus

 

forgot that i would like to buy from bulk reef supply and they dont carry ati

 

That would be a viable option, will you have slightly less output with the Giesemann but still better than most lamps...
