I have a 4x96 Power Compact setup and I am looking to replace the bulbs. Currently there are 2 10K bulbs and 2 Actinic bulbs :?:

Should I replace them with other types of PC's? I currently have some mushrooms, Waving Zenia and a Condy which all have been fine, but it is about time to replace the bulbs. What other bulb combinations would anyone recommend? I have been told of 1 actinic, 1 10K and 2 6500K as an option.

Others?

TIA
 
I'd also say stick with the setup you've been using, but, change 1 bulb at a time, once per week.
New bulbs have more intensity and sometimes sensitive corals will get burned by the new lights.
