do corals need the blue actinic or can i use just whites?

current list is 1 green tree coral, frag of gsp, 3 kenya frags and 1 head frog spawn.

thanks for the read and your input.

i would use the actinics. natural sunlight comes in as more than just one part of the spectrum. give them different spectrums so they can absorb different wavelengths for the overall health of the lps. softies should do just fine without. GSP look best under actinics btw!
