Debt funds for a newbie

Hi, I am planning to allocate some amount of monthly investments in debt funds. I have good experience in equity funds but new to debt funds. Could some one help me for these queries I am adding debt funds with expectation of 6-8% (better than FD’s). Another reason for adding debt funds is to make my portfolio to look green even when equity portion goes down. My tenure is 3+ years. Do monthly SIP in debt funds meaningful? Are debt funds better than arbitrage funds? Is FD better than debt fund…
