Aquactinics T5 Lighting - New lamps

[dueces]

Just want to make sure i have the right light set up for my tank. I have a 46g bow with clam, shrooms, GSP and other corals. Everything is fine but i need to replace my lamps, they are old. Should i keep this set up or go to the 10,0000k lights.
3 x 39w 12,0000k UV
2 x 39w super actinic

If you're going all UVL maybe this? Or maybe swap out an actinic for a 75/25?

You can mix them, but you're going to want some kind of blue bulb in slots 2 and 4.
I have the 48" TX5 on my 55 and this is what I'm running:
UVL 75/25
ATI Blue Plus
UVL Aquasun
ATI Actinic 03
ATI Aquablue Special
