The bluer the lights, the more colors tend to jump out. I personally don't like super blue tanks, but you may. If you want blue, then go with some 20ks, maybe Radiums or Ushio. I run 14k Phoenix right now and get nice color from both coral and fish.

For the MH I have always liked the 14k Pheonix bulbs, but then again I am not a blue tank type person ether.
