T5 Bulbs in the UK

[Willbiker]

Hi all

I cant seem to find many places in the UK selling ATI bulbs. Are there any other trusted brands which you guys use? If so what brand and bulb names?

Thanks!

Can you get Giesemann? Those are arguably better than ATI.

You can't really go wrong with T5 bulbs. It really just depends on how much of a blue or daylight look you are going for.

I would do some combination of actinic blue and aquablue coral and super purple. You might a couple extra to experiment with the color.
