Default Lighting feedback Please

I was wondering if any could offer some recommendations for lighting.

I have a 90 gallon tank (24” tall). I’m not too sure what type of corals I will be adding but I don’t want to be limited by my lighting. I’ll hopefully start cycling my tank just after X-mass so I do have some time.

I was thinking about a 6 bulb T5 fixture that was on display at a local store here were I live. It had 3 blue LED moon lights, three T5 Actinic blue light bulbs at 54 watts each and 3 regular T5 bulbs @ 18,000K and 54 watts each .

Would this be a good fixture to go with, or should I be looking into a 8 bulb T5 fixture

Or, would I need a metal halide fixture ?

Would anyone have a recommendations ?
