LOL! Yup not cheap but if you do plan on doing anything that needs a good amount of light MH is the way to go, at least over a decent sized tank.

I'll +1 the Tek if you're going T5HO and the Viper if you do MH... Go for the 150W Viper if you go that route, more light is always better and you can always shade new corals if needed.

Do some reading, there are some really excellent articles in this sticky.
