What color should the blue axolotl be in my complete overhaul of my old glow axolotl pack?

Update: While the pack is mildly popular, I don't really like it, and would much prefer you consider one of these two as it's replacement:

https://www.planetminecraft.com/mod/addolotls-bedrock/





https://www.planetminecraft.com/texture-pack/joe-s-glow-axolotls/I don't think it fits the quality of my current packs, so I am updating it.
What color should the blue one be? Purple maybe? Or the pink one from vanilla? I want it to be rewarding if a player gets the blue axolotl with this pack, but every other color besides the other 4 end up looking too similar. The other 4 are all Fluorescent, and are: Blue, Green, Yellow, and Red.
You haven't seen inside the pack folders, so you don't know what I am talking about I am sure. I created a whole bunch of glowing axolotl textures based off of real world glowing proteins similar (and the same as) the GFP that was artificially added to axolotls to help see how they healed so well. GFP axolotls are real, but Mojang doesn't want to encourage animal abuse. I understand their point of view, but I also understand that a mob in a game can be inspired by real life without being real.
So, real colors, fake axolotls, hopefully cute.
Any suggestions welcome.

Some people suggested a non-fluorescent cyan, which might look cool, but I don't know if it would fit with the pack's theme. These are my personal top picks after thinking about it:
DF00FF https://www.planetminecraft.com/mob-skin/glow-purple-axolotl-1/
FF00A0 https://www.planetminecraft.com/mob-skin/glow-purple-axolotl-2/
6000FF https://www.planetminecraft.com/mob-skin/glow-purple-axolotl-3/
They are hex codes, so you can check them however you want.
I have made skins for these, and linked them here so you can decide if you like any of them.

And, one additional question that maybe I should make a separate poll on is should I release the other colors on PMC? I made like 16 colors for the pack that never got used. I need to clean them up a bit, but they exist.

If you look inside the pack, there are 2 or 3 blue and cyan colors. One of them is accessible in-game. I think that is a pretty color range, but I also think that we need balance. It's why I wanted to get rid of the chartreuse axolotl, not because it looked bad, but because there is an imbalance of colors.

Everyone makes mistakes. Do you have any ideas for a color that would look good with the fluorescent: blue, red, green, and yellow?

Use the color #56dbc4 with a hex color picker. If you use rgb its (86, 219, 196).

I have already decided on Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow. That's all 4 common colors taken. I want to make the 1 in 1,200 bred axolotls one a special color. Now that I have clarified (sorry for not clarifying earlier) do you still think your cyan looks like a special color among bright, fluorescent axolotls? After sleeping on it, I really think a fluorescent orange or purple would look best. If you have a fluorescent recommendation, please tell me that.
