    We have a t5 6 bulb light and are needing to replace bulbs.

    Just curious, what bulb combinations others have had success with in the past or present?

    Depending on how blue or not blue you want it there are good combos in this link.

    OR just start with 4 blue plus 1 purple plus and 1 coral plus. Great combination.
    For a 6 bulb I run 3 blue plus 2 aqua blue specials and 1 purple plus. But I like a whiter look.

    I use all ATI bulbs - 4 blue plus, 1 purple plus and 1 coral plus - as was mentioned by @jeremy@jeremy above.

    Blue plus, coral plus, and purple plus was a combo I ran as well.

    We already bought 3 blues, so I'm thinking we'll do 2 coral and 1 purple.

    Thanks for the input guys!

    3 blue and 3 coral plus is a good one also. Give an ice blue color. 3 blue 2 coral and a purple is a good look and combo also
