As many of you know I'll be switching to T5s so what's the best 4 bulb combination would you guys suggest? I was thinking 2x coral+, 1blue+ and 1purple+.

1 purple plus and 3 blue plus if your going for ATI hybrid with LED.  You'll have plenty of white within the fixture with the LEDs.

Hmmm phi dose have a point! I don't need much white because I have leds, I only need the full spectrum to bring out coral colours and that's all I really want from the t5. Is 3xblue+ and 1purple+ the best colours combo?

PEWPEW!

Well how important is coral plus because for led white I don't think it has the same spectrum as the coral+.

i currently have 3 blue plus and a coral plus and love the colour. i have a six lamp fixture and will be adding 2 actinic to see what that does. hopefully it will make my corals pop a little more without having to add leds

Lol, I meant 20% purple plus.... I think... look it up online. Its just a mix of mostly blue and aqua blue and a touch of purple plus
