Currently I am using 2 T5 ATI 24w Blue Plus Tube AND 2 T5 24w Super Actinic Blue Tube.

My 2 ft tank mainly on corals but I want it to looks VERY BLUE, no matter what tube I change

also can't have the effect. Kindly advise me what tube must I use???

Tks

Admiring a well designed Terrarium's garden indoor is like walking thru a garden after a whole day work...

Yuo should get it blue if you use the above mentioned tubes...

I'm using them and my tank shots are blue.

Your mind is like a parachute. It only works when it is open.

blue light only might not have the correct light spectrum for the zooxanthellae in your corals to provide food for your coral... so do keep a close eye on your corals as you play around with your lighting...

having said that, actinic light does help some of my zoanthids to grow quicker..

also moon light are usually low power blue LEDs that are quite dim.. used to observe the corals and fishes at night so you do not scare them. alternatively, red light works very well at night for me when i go worm hunting...
