Ok, built a custom canopy for 3ea 250W MH lamps. Canopy is 5' long with 1ea 4' T5 rigs on each side. These two bulbs are for standalone coral fluorescence display....if it were you what 2 bulbs would you go with...

With the halides you should have plenty of light to keep any coral you want. My personal preference would be actinic.
 

Set it and forget it: Do you change your aquascape as your corals grow?
