I had the 6SE and my most used EP's were 13 & 32mm (plossl) for most things. I found that on most nights planets looked better using the 13 compared to the 8 which I was only able to use on nights of excellent seeing.

Slower scopes like this are not as demanding on eyepieces as faster systems like are often used in newtonian reflectors which are more prone to aberations when using lesser quality EP's.

The logical buy would be something in the 15-17mm range but I would wait until you use the scope and see if it is required..

BTW the visual back on the 6SE only supports 1.25" EP's
