I have two AI primes mounted in an Aquatic life dimmable/controllable hybrid fixture. My Primes run my full photoperiod and give me my high noon, then I slowly back the whites out. I'm about to start running 2 true actinics and 2 blue + bulbs to enhance my violets and light blue/cyan, while providing a little spread and fill later in my photoperiod. I'm waiting on my controller so I can tune in the T5's for a nice balance and start acclimating the corals to the increased light.
