Sorry about the crappy quality, but you can still see a huge difference. I wanted to post this in case there is anyone else out there wanting to see what ATI Blue + bulbs look like. The fixture is a 8 bulb T5 Nova Extreme (4 ATI B+ and 4 10K)
 
The tank is a 115g DAS with all the DAS internal filtration removed. I'm loving the lights! They really make a big difference in terms of what colors pop out, especially during the dawn/dusk times.
 
I'm planning on changing the 10K bulbs out with something else. I'm just in the process of doing some research to see which bulbs will give me what I'm looking for.
 
I am running 2 ATI bulbs, don't remember the name exactly, and they really make things blue. I am actually looking for other bulbs now to give a different color.

here is a website that might give you a head start in chossing your other t5 bulbs

So is the Blue+ a 20k Spectrum or 15k?

I ask because I want to do 3-20k and 1-fiji purple and if the Blue+ is 20k then you will get the same look that I want [smilie=clapping.gif]
 
if you are ever in flower mound you can check out my t5 system. i can swap out my bulbs so you can see the different combination. I have a ton of t5 bulbs so you can see the different combinations

currently i run and i get a great color, the reds and blues pop

3 x ati B+
1 x ati pro actinic
1 x uvl actinic white
1 x aquascience duo

ati B+ is a great bulb it is like a 20k bulb but with the par of a day bulb but it does not give the pop of actinic bulbs and reds and oranges seem to have a wash out color
