Like mentioned already, if it is just fowlr then you can use pretty much any lighting system you want. If you want the ability to get into all types of corals then go with a decent t5 unit. Pay the money for a good skimmer now, because you will probably have a high bioload and a basic skimmer will not cut it, which will cause you a tonne of problems later on.
You will not need a Zeovit system for a fowlr, but you can make a little extra room in you sump for future add ons.
When I was running a fowlr all I had in my sump was my skimmer, return pump and a heater. I later added in a UV sterilizer, but you don't have to add one if you don't want to.
