T5 HO or Metal Halide or a combo of both it what I have seen on a lot of the amazing tanks that I have seen so far.

I have a few things that I will not be using anymore in the way of canister filter's, UV sterilizer's and a sump if you are interested.

I have a Rena XP2 with Rena Smart heater, just need new hose to custom fit to any tank (Home Depot) and a Fluval 305 (complete). Both need new media and are only about 8 months old but only used for about 6 months.

I had an algea bloom when i first started my 65, put in a 9w uv. It helped to reduce and control it. You will get many opinions on this issue, I will always have one on hand just in case just my 2 cents.
