I just upgraded to the Sunpod 150W HQI 14k metal halide fixture for my tank and so far, I love it. The one thing that I miss is the actinics because I loved how the corals fluoresced under the blue light and having that sunrise/sunset look with just the PC actinics on. So I got a coralife T5 double linear strip with true actinic 03 blue bulbs. These bulbs look really purple compared to my old PC actinics in my opinion. Are they supposed to look purple? I thought I heard something about how PC actinics are not "true" actinics so maybe this is why it looks different. Thanks.
