It is for a 120cm LED to cover a 140cm tank. The tank will have everything from Macro Algae's to SPS and I would like the softies to pop while having a strong white channel for the macro algae's . What do you think? I'm asking the maker if modifications are possible, if they are what ones should I do, I am thinking 3 more reds replacing 3 greens, and replace maybe 1/3rd of blues with UV/420nm.
Thank You!!

So customizations are available, and I have drawn up the below with more UV and Red. What do people think is best? One or Two? Or is there anything else you would change?

WOW that's about everything isn't it.. ;)
I assume you have 4 independent channels.

You could do all sorts if things, like build an "actinic channel" or freshwater channel or hort/refugium channel.

Something to think about.

Btw ch3's side bar is wrong

Ahhaha yeah everything is what I am going for.
The first picture is the default LED spectrums and it’s 4 channels below I got from the supplier. Then one below is what I made up with some modifications and will send off to the supplier if he approves/ can do it.
What do you think of the second spectrum vs the first overall?
I have a white channel, a UV / warm white channel, a deep red green blue channel and a pure blue channel so seems it should be covered, but just need the reassurance it’s not gonna kill anything in my tank or something ahaha
