This is what my current layout is...

10-7500k

14-3500k

4-4000-4500k

2-red

4-green

2-425nm

38-RB

26-460nm



I might have miss counted some that I changed haha. What I'm wondering though is should I get rid of most of the 3500k's? I've read alot on what colors do what. I have also read how well 3500k will just grow algae. If I do, should I just add more 4500k's? Or? Maybe leave 4 3500k's but ad 4-4500's and 6 RB's? More 425's? Get rid of all the 3500's for 6000k's?
 
no, dont think so; Difference between a cold and a warm white LED is mainly the quantity of blue in that and not the general spectrum of LED. At how many blue you have there wont make a difference :)
Spectrum of various white leds (2700 - 5000k)
