What are the best 2 T5 bulbs?

If you were just looking for pop and color what two bulbs would you choose?

I have a 10 bulb 48" Powermodule and there is a cord that does 8 lights and one that does 2.

I want to run 2 of the bulbs dusk to dawn but can't find 2 that look good. I don't care about coral growth.

I have a good bulb combo with all of them on, but can't find a combination for running just the two.

Thanks.
