One of the systems I help manage has a combination of true actinics, and a super daylight. The system there is an 8 bulb system and the ratio is 5 actinics and 3 super daylight. That tank is a mix of softies, zoos, and LPS. The colors in there are really good, and the growth is awesome. Converting that ratio for your tank it would be 3 actinic to 1 super daylight (roughly). My system at home is balnced 50/50 and the colors are good but not amazing.
