Im wanting to switch from this to a more blue than pink during the day. The plan was to drop the Violet to 40ish and raise the Blue to 85ish.

Can i just slowly lower the Violet over a couple of weeks and Increase the blues?

Can i just do it all at once since it wont really change the par?

Everything is growing well i just dont really like the looks of the tank during peak hours.

Changing it slowly is what me and most people do, but can I ask, why change anything if everything is growing well?
