Led Lighting advice

I know this is not high tech but looking for some advice.

I was running this 180L cube tank with 7 interpet white led tubes (a 3 tube and 2x2 tubes), and recently added x2 interpet tri sepcs (as the LFS was selling these off cheap) and I kept the original middle 3 white tubes.
The tri spec uses white red and blue leds which has really brought out the colour of the plants but I am not too sure on the colour of the sand.
Any advice
Thanks

Not sure you need all that light over a 180l low tech setup, so if you’re unhappy with the pink sand, tome down the red a little.
 
It’s a very deep tank as it’s a cube and looks bad with less lights. I do run co2 fe and tnc complete.
 
FWIW I much prefer the look of plants and sand without the special effects ;)
(even the plants look slightly artificial)
 
put a diffuser over those RGB leds.
 
I had a little play with it and also moved the wood around - reattached the Buse.

I got the controller for the front leds so I can play with the colours.
