light help

i have a 210 gallon tank 6' long. i just got a current light fixture with 3x 175 m/h and it has a few led for lunar but you can only see them at night. the tank now is too yellowish i want to add some blue, can i just change the m/h bulbs? or is there a small light fixture i can add for some blue light. i dont have a canopy so i am trying to keep it nice and neat. the current light fixture is only 8" wide so i can open the glass on the top of the tank to feed the fifh.

Depends if your fixture has the MH only then change th bulbs to 20,000K but if it has actinic bulbs (blue ones) then replace the bulbs to 460nm or turn them on if you have it off.

I would change to 15- 20k bulbs and get some t5s
