What is the Aquablue Special?
The ATI Aquablue Special is a high-output (HO) T5 bulb designed for reef aquariums. It combines the growth-driving properties of a full-spectrum bulb with an elevated blue peak, resulting in a crisp white-blue look with an approximate color temperature of 15,000K.
The Science of Coral Growth
As the cornerstone of the ATI lighting concept, the Aquablue Special is engineered for performance. Due to its high blue light content, it provides a high proportion of Photosynthetically Usable Radiation (PUR). This specifically supports the symbiotic zooxanthellae within coral tissues, driving faster growth and better health for both SPS and LPS corals.
Why Choose ATI T5 Bulbs?
For over 25 years, ATI has set the standard for coral growth and reef health. These bulbs are engineered using advanced manufacturing to provide:
-
High PAR Output: More light energy for demanding SPS and LPS corals.
-
Color Stability: Consistent spectrum every bulb.
-
Proven Results: The #1 selling specialty T5 line used by professional coral farmers and hobbyists alike.
Customizing Your Reef’s Look
Whether you want to maximize coral fluorescence or achieve a natural shallow-water look, ATI’s bulb range allows for total customization. Pair the Aquablue Special with Blue Plus or Coral Plus bulbs to create the perfect PAR-heavy environment for a thriving reef.
Recommended Bulb Combinations
To achieve the best visual results and PAR levels, we recommend using the Aquablue Special as your primary spectrum source. For a balanced reef tank, mix Aquablue Special with ATI Blue Plus or other supplementary bulbs at a ratio of 1:1 to 1:2.
