If you go with 400W halides you never need to worry about "upgrading" again, and can keep any coral you like in terms of light. 2x250W would also work with florescent lights for actinic/dusk-dawn effect. I personally use single ended bulbs, lots of selection in terms of light spectrum and cost.

I actually have a 1X400W setup sitting around.. but I am a little concerned about heat with that light (especially a pair of these lights). I have a little bit of a vertical limitation and the light would be about 3"-4" off the water.
If I ran 2X250s.... couldn't I put SPS (eventually) half way up? I realize that coverage to the bottom wouldn't be great...
