Agree with the other users that if you are only using 24w,
you want to maximize the light output which a whiter bulb can be more effective than the blue plus. It should definitely fill in the shading, from my understanding and most of the reefers on here would agree the blue LEDs bleach Lps corals lesss than the white LEDs. Most times when you turn the whites to maximum you will bleach corals unless you have a deeper tank with lower scape and wider lens. Blue LEDs run at max won't do this.

I feel like it's better the other way around.
Use leds to supplement t5s. Get the spectrum of t5s but the pop of led... As long as heat isn't a concern, t5 is way more tested and true.

I was running a pretty ghetto diy.
Just installed an aqua ray into my RSM250 under the front panel...it flips up when I feed but that's really the only downside. I can't imagine being any happier with the color... I was thinking of a steves LED custom but now that technology seems kind of outdated and I'm glad I didn't. I ran the E5 leds for a while and I have to say that they did an awesome job...they didn't have the pop of led but they had 0 disco ball effect or shadowing...The blue Daylight would prob be ideal for filling in your t5's. If your fixture is 36", I have a buttload of bulbs you can have to try out...pretty much everything JL carries. they're all 6 months - 18 months old though.
