Default Lighting suggestions

I purchased a unit that has three 250w halides, and six power compacts. The power compacts need to be replaced, and I want some to compliment the Profilux controller I purchased with the lighting unit.

I was wondering what kind of compacts I should buy to fully utilize the sun/moon phases of daytime and night. The compacts are placed on each side of the halides. Since half of the bulbs are burned out, I cannot tell which ones come on with one of the two switches. I think the back half turn on with one switch and front with the other. The bulbs themselves do not say which spectrum they are so it is not helping me much.

Keith will be coming to help me out with the Profilux since I have no clue how to make it all run. The seller also forgot to give me the proper adaptors for the unit itself to plug into the computer. No big deal but it's a small hurdle to overcome.

What would be a nice combination to use?
