So have a 1200 and 1000 watt led in 2x4 tent. The 1000 is pulling 140 and 1200 is 234 watts. Pulled cfls all out to get these in. Any thoughts on if I should put cfls back in or sum of them..

Should be fine. If you feel your lower buds are lacking you can always slap some cfls lower down for a bit of side lighting.

So I just ordered another on of 1200 watt which is pulling 234 watts. So with two 1200 watt LEDs it will be putting out 468 actual watts. My 1000 watt led is flower only which is pulling 140 watts. Goin to pull out all the cfls. You think 468 watts I’ll be ok in my 2x4 with 3 plants and then my 1000
Watt flower only light have has a backup or maybe for side lighting if I find I need it.

I would buy x3 small white based lights w/ lenses . Even x2 ,14w Spot-lights on each end & x2 Flood lights in the middle for dispersion will help with spectrum & give you visual lighting when you need it.
The CFL's ontop appear to block the burple lights.
If staying cfl maybe put them in a big reflector on the sides.
Looking good though!
