if you are going 250 watt go with either a pulse start or HQI ballast and then a mogal socket, this will alow you to run any SE 250 watt bulb and by using a SE 250 watt bulb you can get away with one bulb in the middle running front to back. this will give you lower light on the edges for stuff that likes that.

personaly I would go with a M80 ballast and a mogal base. you will need a container for the ballast if you want it to look pretty, some wiring and some sort of holder/mount for your mogal socket.
