supplement lighting option?

[nicknguyen]

I have a 175 bowfront will full canopy. I use 3 luman max elite with 2 250wt radiums and 400wt radiums in the middle. I have about 6 inches between each light. not much behind and even less space in the front of the lights due to the curvature of the canopy. I want to supplemnent with some blues. I tried a 80wt t-5 but really no way to mount it. I have a kessil 150wt ocean blue and put it on the middle section but can't tell the difference with it on or off.

I was thinking of going with some 27wt par 38 in the royal bllues. question is do you think it will make an impact and give me little more pop in the corals? or will my halides drown them out and make no difference? If so what do you think will help on limited space?

Maybe buildmyled.com royal blue LED strips? You can get their mounts that site right in the rim of the tank which will put the blues closer to the tank and also keep the heat off of heat of the halides.
