Which Actinic PC Bulb is the Most Blue?

I've seen some photos of incredibly blue actinic lights posted on this board. Which actinic PC bulb has the most intense blue coloration? I have a CustomSeaLife ABS hood with two 65W 7100K actinics which aren't very impressive. The other two bulbs are 8100K 65W.

Order the 03 actinic from lampsnow, they are a GREAT actinic. All the greens in my tank glow so much more than the old 7100K blue bulb. But you asked for blue. The 03 actonic is more of a purple glow. I have the 03 and a 10K PC and I love the coloration.

The lamps now are the only ones I have seen that resemble the true 'actinic' of a VHO .03
