Hi,
does anyone have any experiences using LED for macroalgae? I have Cree cool white, blue and royal blue and caulerpa is growning fast, but botryocladia, halymenia and rhodymenia don't grow :(
 
The last three macros you listed are normally in deeper water and somewhat slow growers, especially compared to a fast growing Caulerpa. The deeper water macros utilize more of the blue spectrum. You should be fine with the LED spectrum that you mentioned.
