I would do 2 blue+, a purple plus and a coral+.
Although if you like a bluer tank the 3 blue+ and a coral+ would work as well.
As far as how long to run them, I would go 8-10 hours a day. What size tank do you have the 4 bulb fixture over? If it is more than 12" deep (front to back) I would consider going to a 6 bulb fixture. Good luck with the journey into the SPS addiction.
