ATI Bulb Configuration Ideas

Right now I am running my tank with the below ATI bulb configuration.

Front
Blue Plus
Purple Plus
Blue Plus
Coral Plus
Blue Plus
Blue Plus
Back

To me it seems a little too blue and I have an extra Coral Plus to replace one Blue Plus with. Where would you put it? Just looking for ideas...
