Good combination of MH lights?

[wintrmte]

All,
I'm wondering what, in your opinion, would make a good combination for MH lights? I currently have two 10K Ushio bulbs, but am wondering if a 10K and a 20K would make the colors more vibrant?
Thanks!

Would the 10,000K and 20,000K bulbs be placed side-by-side? If so, that would probably give the tank an unbalanced or lopsided look.

Indeed, they are going into a 48" wide hood.

but if you do a combination like what i mentioned, youll have to have 2 mh lights on each side of your tank..

Exactly. I'm just wondering what a good combination would be, to bring out the colors.
As it stands now, I have 4 T5 Blue's in (35W each) so it would definitely offset two MH 10K's.
