I’m going to be running an aquatic life 4 bulb hybrid fixture with my Radions. What bulb setup would be best for growth?

Geismann superblue coral or the geismann super actinic. I've used those in the past and had nice growth and coloration. You could mix them as well. 2 of one 2 of another

I’m seeing a lot of people are using blue and actinic. Does the actinic have great growth properties?

Also, not worried about color here. This is just wanting growth only.

That seems to be in the area of the spectrum of lighting that promotes the growth in corals.
