I just got a 8x bulb ati fixture and want to pick out some bulbs.

I dont want any of these led bulbs I am going to put reef brights on it at some point

bulbs I have are 3x Aquablue Special and 3x Blue Plus and one Super Actinic. Thinking about just getting a Coral+ and a Purple+ and then working with that.

I am thinking of doing from front to back

Blue+
Coral+
AquaBlue
Blue+
Purple+
AquaBlue
Blue+
Aqua Blue

What do you all think? I dont like it to be SUPER blue so I want to avoid that but I want to color pop so thats why I am thinking of adding the coral+ because its a nice mix and the purple+ to pull out some of the other colors
 
If it was me I would just add that super actinic in place of one of the aqua blue special. That will give you plenty of pop without sacrificing the 14k or less look you are going for.
