Lighting opinions for 75G

[Mnemic]

Hey guys,

I'm trying to decide the best way to go about lighting my 75G, and I'm wanting some opinions.

Evenutaly I'd like to have 2 250W MHs and 4 VHO, but funds dictate only one for the time being, and I'd like some opinions on which would work better for starting up, and keeping SPS & Fish.

So if you had to decide... MH or VHO for now?

I am using AB's aquastarlight future 2-150watt DE unit with built in moonlight. I love it. I also have a 75gal and i can keep anything with these. They give off a crisp white light. I would recommend that.

I have 2x 250w HQI fixtures with AB 10k bulbs over my 75. I also have 2 40 W NO actinics as the 10ks are very white but a nice color overall. I can keep about anything and have a nice color overall but could use a little more blue. HelloLights and Champion sell 20k HQI bulbs (currently out of stock) which have nice color but I have no idea what the intensity is like.
