Which bulb?

[pufferfreak]

I need a set of new bulbs for my reef tank. I have 7100K blue bulb and a 6700K day bulb. Now I am looking at getting new bulbs. Here are my choices 10,000K, 6700K, 8800K, 55W 03 ACTINIC BLUE COMPACT FLUORESCENT, 7100K BLUE. Which one is good I need one blue and one day?

Avoid the 7100K Blue....
Anything else will work equally well IMO. I prefer one Daylight & one Actinic but individual tastes vary

My vore is for the 10k daylight and the 03 actinic.

I am going to get the 10000K and the 03 actinics but what is the difference I have never seen these so I don't know.

A 6500k is a yellow color
7100k blue is a bulb with a blue caoting on it to make the light come out blue.
10,000k bright white
12,000k white with a blueish hue
20,000k a nice blue light
03 actinic a purplish light used to bring out the colors of fish and corals.
