I was a bit worried about the same thing when I switched over, I really don't think my tank looks too blue at all.
My schedule;

9am rear T5 on

11 am front T5 on

3pm MH on

8pm MH off

9 or 10pm front T5 off (sorry I can't remember when it goes off at the moment)

11pm rear T5 off

My rear T5 is about 14-16" off the water surface

MH same as above

Front T5 about 4-5" from the surface
