Has anyone tried the new ATI Coral plus bulb. Its time to replace my bulbs and I was going to use this one instead of the Blue Special.

 

I have a Blue Special/Blue plus combo.

let me know, ive been a Blue plus believer for a long time....really the only bulb i use...wouldnt mind adding a little extra color.

I'll keep everyone posted. I really don't like the Blue Special/Blue plus combo when the Halides aren't on. Looks kinda green to me.

From front to back in my 6 bulb fixture I have:

 

Blue +

Purple +

Coral +

Seems like a nice crisp white light with a blue tint to me. I like the look of the Coral + better than the Aquablue Special. I'm fairly new to T5 lighting, but I experimented a bit with the mix of bulbs and this combo looked the best to me.

I run my 4 bulb like this.. Not sure what i would replace with Coral+..

 

From back to front

 

Blue +

Aquablue Special

Blue LEDS

If you want to try it, I'd replace the Aquablue.

Front to back 8 bulbs.
