I have 1-400w & 1-250w MH, VHO & T5 so I didn’t know what to vote for.
 I have a 250w 10K XM above the coral wall side and a 400w 10K XM abouve the Anemone, both driven by magnetic ballasts. I also have 3 x 48" 110w and 1 x 36" 95w VHO Super Actinics run off a Ice cap 660 & 2 x 54w T5 (1-10k & 1-actinic) by Tek I did it this way because I wanted the best of all worlds, I'm greedy that way. I had read how people liked the different colors they were getting from their respective methods and I figured I would have them all since I don't know what I'm doing.  If I were to do it again and I may do it anyway is, replace it all with HQI DE pendants with 14k or 20k bulbs, but I havn't looked into it yet. I'm fairly happy with it now so... I have pics in my tank thread.
