I just wanted to ask if anyone notices any benefits with having True Violet in the LED build or should I go and add some red and green also? Is it just for personal viewing preferences?
Thanks and will try to post newer photos this weekend.

True Viloets (420nm True Violets) really bring out some intense colors. Especially in the light greens. They also give a good color to the tank.
Reds are good if they are the 660nm
For greens, I dont really recommend them but I do like the 495nm Turquoise which when combined with the 660nm red and 455 royal blue turns all the light to a nice white color and brightens the tank. The turquoise also makes the oranges and reds pop.
