    since you are leaning so heavily towards blue (actinics and 12k) your color enhancing bulb needs to be something that has some red in it like a Fiji Purple, etc.

    I've read good things about the ATI purple plus. In fact I ordered on to put on my 180g. I'm using fiji purple right now and they do a good job. Maybe you can get an old fiji bulb from someone to try it out. I would loan you one but my bulbs are 5'.
