Reeflux 12k should be bluer. If u want blue then maybe can go for 20k.

tried BLV 20k once. My goosh, it's very very blue, and wife did not like it.

She prefers bright tank, and I prefer tint of blueness for my SPS colouration .

My current 12k reeflux is not very blue, so most of my SPS looks pale .

Maybe T5 Actinic blue suppliment ?

did thought of LED's, but todate, can't seems to find any to my fancy ( in terms of growth )
