I wanted to add some different color lighting to my tank. I was thinking of getting 2-3 Led stunner strips but cant decide what colors to get. the boss(my gf) says megenta for sure.
Color choices are
403nm uv
445nm Royal blue
453nm
Megenta
Megenta/12,000k
Megenta/453

My main light already has 2 10,000k and 2 Blues says it peeks at 420nm what ever peeks means.
 
The peak wavelength is the point in the spectrum that is most powerful on the bulb. 453 nm is pretty standard for a peak on an actinic blue bulb.

You want to add color to make the fish and coral look better? If you have whites and blues you're going to want to add UV / Cyan / Magenta for color rendition - those are going to be the big three, but you could also consider red, green, yellow, and orange as well but I don't think those colors are readily available in stunner strips
