Yeah sounds like I will be running the blue more than the white. But will start off slow at first to get the coral use to the new light. Thanks for the suggestions guys.

Is it really true that blue leds put out the same par as the white one?

Yes, tested on a PAR meter and PAR was equal between blues & whites (at least with the 10w emitters I'm using).
