For most of my daily light cycle I use 2 uvl actinic and 2 uvl actinic whites. The intensity is not epic but I am getting good color and growth, but I also have a fifth lamp that comes on for 2 hours/day. HTH.

Maybe 1 actinic white and 1 ATI aquablue special for daylights would give you a better balance.
