Pc Lighting

I read here and there and corals take in more light from the blue spectrum between 400nm and 480nm. There is also a peek in the red light spectrum that corals take in well. In my light I have 2 10000k, 2 420nm, and 2 50/50 (420nm, 460nm). When I have to buy lights again I am going to get 2 10000k, and 4 420nm. IMO the 420's make the corals pop more and with the 10000ks on it doesen't look to blue. With 4 10000k lights it might look a little yellow.

With a set up like mine it would not look natural stagering the lights with rows of three using equal 10000k to actinics.
 
yeah i just bought them lights from ebay the 264watt pc fixture and i combined them with the t5s i had already on my tank and everything is good so far
