Question TEK 6 bulb choice?

I am picking up a new 54 watt 6 bulb fixture on the weekend and I was wondering what would be a good bulb choice to achieve max. SPS growth?
I would also like a blue hue effect to the water.

What order should I put them in?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks Liz

Isn't that thread just one persons point of view?
I would like the opportunity to have a couple of ideas as to the selection of the bulbs and ordered of placement.
