Here's the specs of each Aquablue bulb is
• T-5 HO 54W
• 60% actinic and 40% combination (15000K)
• Great as a stand-alone bulb, or in combination with Daylights or Actinic bulbs.

I didn't pick the bulbs, the place I bought them from picked them for me when I bought the fixture. Do you think I should supplement two of the bulbs with something else?
