Picking up my new light next week. It comes with 3x 400W 10K MH. Any suggestions on the configuration of the 8x T5's? There are 4x 36" T5's on each side of the MH's. I'll be running the MH's for probably 5 to 6 hours per day and the T5's for 12 hours. So the T5's will be on for 6 to 7 hours per day without the MH's. The question I have is: the T5's should have enough colour to offset the brightness of the MH's but not too much blue when the MH's are not on. I prefer just enough blue to bring out the colours in the tank without casting a blue tinge over everything. Suggestions?
