Supplementing T5 with LED?

So I have a 8x4ft t5 fixture and I have heard that supplementing 460nm does some science in the plant during veg and is good, I'm reef guy so I just happened to have a 4 ft led strip in 460nm so I have been giving my plants a 30 min sunrise/sunset plus all day supplementation with the 460 and my question is would this screw with my flowering when the time comes or would it still offer some type of benifets to the plant even in flowering? I have also seen t5 flowering but leaving a couple bulbs 6500 or am I miss reading that. I'm usually a outdoor guy but I want to replenish one of strains early so I'll be flowering by new years.
 
hey,right now im growing with a 400w led and i feel like it isnt enough so i always throw in a couple t5 bulbs on the lower to mid parts just to help doesnt seem to do anything but help, and i alwways mix spectrums
