Question wanting to set allumina to simulate 14k

good morning all

i am running a 5ft illumina with 3 uv mods.I'm having a hard time getting my day light cycle to simulate my old 14k mh.Over the course of the day i have the blues up to 100% and the whites to 70% peek.However the tank seems very white with not a lot of blue.I remember the 14k mh had a nice hint of blue.

i guess my question is, has anyone figured out how to get that 14k look

thanks in advance

I have the same light and just keep playing with it till I find the settings I like. I wish vertex would give us the options of choosing just like the radions etc.

Loudest part of my system would be the nagging sound I hear on a regular basis about how much time and money I spend on the tank.
