T5 light bulb combination??

[ds450x]

I'm looking at getting the 46" uvl t5 bulbs but I don't know what combination of them? My fixture has 6 bulbs and they can't be longer than 46". Its a catalina aquatics fixture.

48" bulbs are not actually 48" long. Any of the major brand 54w 48" bulbs (ATI, Geisemann, UVL) will be fine.
Maybe:
ATI Blue Plus
UVL Actinic White
ATI Blue Plus
KZ Figi Purple or UVL Aquasun
ATI Blue Plus
ATI Aquablue Special

Could you possibly measure your bulb for me to make sure it will fit? From end to end not including the pins. Thanks

Without pins; ~45.25"
