I want to change out the blues and replace them with all royal blues and some UV's. and change out the neutral whites to cool whites. Does anyone have the LED layout for this fixture? Or know how to tell by looking at the LED's themselves?

Below is what comes with the fixture per their Amazon page.
- Channel one: Violet(420nm), Royal Blue(450nm), Blue(470nm)
- Channel two: Green(520nm), Red(660nm), Neutral White(6500K), Cool White(12000K)
 
You could turn the fixture on its lowest setting and take a peak :)

I don't know these fixtures, but that would be my first step if it was me.
 
You can tell by looking at the LEDS closely when you get it disassembled. You could search for the SBReef layout if you want some pointers. Not sure I agree with taking out all the blues though, most every fixture i have seen has at least the two blues if not a variety as opposed to just RB.
 
Thanks for the advice. I got a few 395nm UV's that I'll replace some blues with as well. I will most likely keep most of them RB with 2 or 3 blues and 2-3 UVs.

I no this is a old thread, but did you ever do it? looking at swapping out some of my LEDS as well and not sure which ones?
