Replacing my two T5's (they supplement my two 250 MH's XM 10K's), I want to go with much bluer lights. I really like the deep blue almost black light look. Was thinking theses two, any comments appreciated:

Thanx
 
The actinic + are what used to be called the blue+ bulbs. They are great for supplimentation of the XM 10k. I used to run two 39w blue + to suppliment my single 250 XM. It gave it a nice white with a hint of blue.

I'm running two Reeflux 12k now and it has about the same look but a little bluer. I may go ahead and suppliment it just for kicks :wink:
 
I want them to be really blue, maybe I should go with two of the Pure's. I'm trying to achieve a Black light look when the MH's go out.
 
Really blue is probably only going to be accomplished by either overdriving the blue+ with an icecap ballast or adding more bulbs. The pure actinics are not bright at all! You would probably never know they were on against a 10k XM bulb.

It will be very blue with only the blue+ being on for a dusk/dawn effect, but not with the halides on.
