Pigmera GX inks for P900 - recommendations?

I am using a combined Inktec Powerchrome K3 ink (including vivid magenta) with original Epson Ultrachrome PK and Violet ink. Inktec does not make violet ink and the Inktec PK has strange metallic sheen and is not so deep black like the original Epson PK ink (having a much better (lower) Dmax value). I am using expired Epson LPF cartridge having 350-700 ml's ink that cost me almost nothing and suck the ink out with a syringe through the ink outlet valve.

This is the best solution, I also now just buy expired large origanal cartridges for 350-700 ml and pump out ink.
EasyInk PK for P600 P800 have larger particles they are the most neutral and dark and are not suitable for photo paper that does not absorb pigment well and there is no gloss in it like in InkTek PK. But they have a great dMax. For black-white printing, I use the LK curve with the PK curve, since LK ink uses a special gloss varnish.
