T5 Bulb Suggestions

#1
I found a used 6 bulb Tek light for my 75 gallon tank and need to replace the bulbs. What do you all suggest? I have no idea what bulbs are in it now but, I think they are a bit too bright for the tank. I have a few soft corals in there so, would like to promote their growth and health. Thanks for all of your help, I really appreciate your guidance with this new hobby. :)

Here is a link to a GREAT site about bulb combinations. The author, Grimm, is a member here and has spent a great amount of time researching the combinations. I use his guide everytime I set up a new fixture. Highly recommend.

No matter the combo, do look at the site boggie suggested, the 6 bulb is goona be a lot of light for the softies. I have the same fixture and use the middle 4 bulbs most of the time in my sps tank.
