Aquamedic Reef Blue

Aquamedic Reef White
Aquamedic Reef Blue
ATI Blue Plus
I had the Aquamedic bulbs and used them last year, but won't keep that schedule.
The Aquamedic Reef White makes the tank look a little too yellow.
I want a blue/white balance at this time.
Ok, time to change again and I've got 3 different schedules to choose from for my zoa tank:
#1:
FRONT
ATI Aquablue special
UVL Super Actinic
ATI Purple Plus or UVL 75/25 aquablue
ATI Aquablue special
UVL Super Actinic
ATI Blue Plus
#2:
FRONT
Actinic white
UVL Super actinic
ATI Blue plus
GE 6500K
UVL Super actinic
ATI Blue Plus.
#3
FRONT
UVL Indigo Sun
UVL Super actinic
ATI Blue Plus
UVL Indigo Sun
UVL Super actinic
ATI Blue Plus
Bulb #2 and bulb # 5 (from the front) are the ones for the early morning/ late evening effects.
Please let me know what you think.
Looking for a cleaner white end.
Thanks.
Grandis.

I'd do 4 Blue Plus 1 Purple Plus and a ATI Aquablue. The Blue Pluses have all the actinic you need, You could use one in a dusk/dawn position, that's their best use cause once all the lights are on you really can't tell there's one in there.
