Melonbob is on a distinguished road
Default lighting
Budget - 48" Current USA Nova Extreme Pro
- 48" Catalina Solar t5

Mid Road - 48" Tek t5, 6 bulb
48" Aquactinics tx5

High End - 48" Aquactinics Solar flare
48" PFO Solaris I5

This is only an opinion, but t5 lighting is the best choice, especially for smaller tanks, less heat issues, less frequent bulb changes, and easier to mix bulbs for a custom look. The PFO solaris is very expensive, but it's LED lighting and never has bulbs to change.
