ECFP Anyone?

I have a user who wishes to run Clontech EGFP and ECFP together; we
can run EGFP O/K but we have not yet tried ECFP & I'm dubious....

Has anyone used ECFP (cyan) in a flow cytometer?
If so, what laser & wavelength excitation?

The Clontech website says excitation is 433 with a secondary
absorption peak at 453.
No spectra shown, so I don't know how broad the absorption curve
might be.
We don't have any 433 line available, would the argon 457 line work?

Any ideas &/or experience?

Thanks, Joseph.
