Looking to get more blue in my tank currently running 18 cree
Driver non dimmable 35-700 x 2
4 NW
4 B
12 RB
What I can do to get more actinic look with current set up ? Do I need any whites in my set up ? Can I only run B and RB at 700mA ? I don't like to spend $ for new dimmable drivers I have few 700mA as my back up
Any suggestion is really appreciated thank you
 
Couple Purple LED wouldn't hurt. You only need a couple whites in there, I would say 3 should suffice.
 
I would swap out the NW for Cree XT-E 7.5K Cool White.

The Neutral is a tad yellow for my taste.

Also make sure the RB is 450 nm. You can notice the difference in colour pop from a 460nm RB
