Aquarium Lights

[Medical]

Hi,
I was looking over aquarium T5 light fixture in 36" size. I notice very hight temp ratings in the 10K-11K range. They also have blue bulbs in the acitic(I think its called that). Would using all cool white in T5, T8 and T12 pose a problem instead of using one cool white in 41k-65K w/warm white in the 3K.

Would using the above aquarium blubs in the 10K-11K be to much?

what kind of problems do you worry about

I read that using too much light in the blue spectrum could harm or kill them. As to the all cool white or one cool white with warm 3000K. I also read that in the veg state the plants need some red spectrum also?

no amount of light can kill a plant.
