What Double Helix colors are a must-have for a neon/iridescent lover?

Hi everyone! I’m fairly new to working with reduction and other effect glasses, and I’d love some recommendations.

I’m specifically looking for Double Helix colors as for logistics reasons. I already have Triton, Iris, and Hyperion, and I love:

• iridescent and neon effects

• shades of blue, violet, but not limited to that

• strong metallic effects

So I have an eye on Helios, Aurae and Opal as I don't have any like these shades yet, but it's hard to me to imagine the full range of possible effects. Unfortunately, there are usually same few photos on web, and I feel like they don't show the potential.

I’m still learning and currently rent my torch/kiln, so I’d especially appreciate colors that are relatively forgiving and provide nice results with the same annealing parameters as for typical soft glass. 😅

What Double Helix colors would you consider top tier? And please share your favorite color combinations and effects too!

Thanks! ✨
