Help With Light Bulb Configuration

[Maz13]

I have a six buld T-5 fixture I am replacing the lights in. I was looking for some help on what bulb configuration I should be going after. I want a bit more of a bluish tint. Any help on the best kind of bulbs and color would be appreciated

My favorite combo is 4 Blue+, 1 Purple plus and 1 6500K or white actinic. This gives plenty of blue, good par and the purple really makes colors pop.

Thats the combo I was leaning to. WHat order should I configure the bulbs in the fixture as well as the time frame for which ones come on at what time frame?

If you want a little more blue, change out the 6500 for an ATI Coral +

Depending your Dusk/dawn spots, I'd do
