Default Thinking about KZ lighting

Hi Everyone,

I recently changed my FOWLR into a mixed reef tank and have quite a few SPS now. Therefore I also updated my old PC lighting to a Current USA 48"-6 bulb fixture, currently running with the original 3-actinics and 3-10,000K 54W. My tank is 75 gallons: 48 (L) x 18 (W) x 20 (H). It's been doing well enough, I do have noticable growth on some of the acros after 3 weeks but I feel like the colour spectrum isn't doing the corals justice. I'd like the corals to pop a little more. I have greens, reds, purples, oranges...really every colour.

So I was thinking of switching out the bulbs for 2 KZ Fiji purples (39W), 2 KZ Coral lights (39W), and 2 KZ New generation 14 K (39W).

Has anybody used this assortment of bulbs and if so how did you like them. Also the KZ website says you should use fiji purple:coral light in a 1:2 ratio, so not quite sure how the new generation bulbs fit into that picture.

Also since I'm currently running 54W and KZ only offers 24W and 39W, I was thinking of going with the 39W.

Thanks for your input!
