Default T5 lights.... too many to choose... what combination....what brand???

Hello, so basically as the title says, there is just so many choices out there... I really like the color of Kiens FOWLR. I have 4 39W slots to fill but dont know if I should get KZ or Giesemann or is there some other nicer bulb out there? Also what should I get like a fiji purple, actinic and 2 14000K?? I also hear that as long as the color temp is high there isnt really a need for actinics but dont want to just get all 20000K bulbs and light everything up crazy and have nothing grow. (heard 20k were good for color but not for growth) I overthink things a lot. My tank is 46Gal, 19" deep. Have a mix of everything, really want a clam in the future. I dont want to buy any metal halides, I have 3 400w pendants (for the future tank) but think that will prob melt my current tank. haha. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
