Ja, we need more information before we can advise you.

GobyInPeace does have a nice bulb combo, he uses 1 UVL Super Actinic, 1 ATI Blue+, 1 ATI Aquablue, and 1 GE 6500.

That's close to mine! I switched the aqua blue for a blue plus.
He overdrives his bulbs as well...

I don't know if this changes anything.
