Default Marine Lighting

Hi. New here...Great Site! So I'm looking for some marine advice. Which is a better supplement to 10K CF lamps? Royal Blue or Actinic lamps? Is 260 watts enough for a 75G? I guess a better question is what will and what won't do well with this amount of light. I could do with some detailed info as I'm not well versed in marine FOWLR or Reef tanks. Have done Marine Fish only and a FOWLR tank gone wrong many years ago and have been doing FW for many years. I'd really like to do a small reef but I'm sure this is no where enough light so I'm pretty sure it'll have to be be a FOWLR tank. I have a decent skimmer, small refugium, power heads etc. I'd like to be able to have zoo's, Mushrooms, Soft Corals, Inverts?

Educate me please!

cheers!
