Lighting is not that important for fish only however if you do go the coral route LED is the way of the future - MH's are going the way of the dinosaur and T5Ho's pretty much suck for large deep tanks.

I have a 10bulb T5HO on my 210

I use 3 Reef Breeders Super Lux over my 180. The Super Lux are Reef Breeders budget light going for $200 a piece. You can control the on/off and the blue/white balance

I am very happy with the light
