you will find compelling arguments for pc's, mh and t5's.
Myself, I have 300 watts of DE Halides and 260 watts of PC lighting over my 24' deep 72 bowfront and couldn't be happier.
I had a single 65w 50/50 pc over my old 36 gallon bow (18' deep) and grew just softies, mushrooms and kept the odd LPS with no problem.
Trial and error my friend, but in my opinion you'd be just fine on that tank with either pc or t5, plus you can always upgrade later if you need or want to.

Trial and error are the two things I have lots of experience with!
I just didn't want to under light the tank and kill off any animals
. and it seems that any LFS I talk to all seem to have diffrent values when it comes to lighting and what is needed.
I don't think my tank needs to be seen from space but I also want to see what going on in there
Thanks
