I don't think the pink color is because the actinic bulbs are 6 months old. My light fixture is very similar to his with 4x39 T5 bulbs + 2x150 HQI. I purchased 4 brand new T5 bulbs during boxing day. 3 of them are UV Super Actinic and 1 Aqua Pink and my tank looks pretty pink too.
If you don't like the look then you have to get rid of the Aquapink because replacing your 6 month old actinic will not get rid of the pink color. Knowing what I know now I don't think I will purchase an Aquapink or Fijipurple light bulb again.
