I would skip the UVL bulbs, stick with KZ except I might add the one Blue Plus. I think that would be a good start, you would get a chance to see all the major bulbs and could fine tune after that.

thx for the suggestions guys.

Why would you guys skip the UVL 75/25 bulbs?

You won't get much of a dawn/dusk effect using new gen and fijis on the outside.. that would be my only concern.
