After some research and weighing off my options for adding some of the missing spectrum in my AI Sol Blue LED panels, I decided to add T5s to it. I found this to be the most effective/cheaper/easiest and somewhat proven way to add the missing spectrums.
People in other reef clubs have had some good results from T5 supplementation, so I thought I might give it a try.
I decided to go with 2 T5 bulb configuration w/ individual reflectors – ATI Purple Plus and Actinic.
I took my Sols down and built a frame around it and installed the caps, ballast and reflector. The reflectors are just clipped onto the bulbs. This way I can aim the light as needed.
