2 - ATI Aqua Blue Special
2 - 10,000K (KZ or Geisman)
2 - 15,000K (KZ or Geisman)
2 - Fiji Purple

that is extremely white

to the original poster, its up to you. imo even a 6 bulb doesn't have enough bulbs for a good enough bulb choice

if i were you i would for sure run 2 22,000k bulbs and the probably 2 14,000k bulbs. no point looking into bulbs specifically for certain colors.
