I have Geiseman bulbs but I would like to go ATI bulbs. I need your expertise.

I use
2-Super Actinic
2-Actinic Blue
1-Aquablue coral
1-Aquablue azure

The question I have is the geisemann bulbs seem to have a lot more in the blue 420 nm range than the ATI bulbs at least in the pictures of the spectrums. Is this real or just a difference in how they display there information?

I'd say difference in how they are displayed. Check out the new BRS video.

The 420 peak is almost identical. The ATI has a slightly stronger 450 peak and the Giesemann has a little bit more green and some red/infrared.
