If you had 8 lamps set up i suggest :
1 daylight lamps (8000K)
1 Actnic Blue B (18.000K)
2 Actnic Blue A (22.000K) this one is more blue than B
4 Plant growth type of lamps (ussually between 12.000-16.000K) this type is have more UV spectrum for tanning but remember it only last 5-6months for maximum UV ray.

BTW you use large number of light make sure you had descent ventilation inside the tank's hood or you get overheating your tank with excessive heat from the lamp's ballast
