T-5's should be fine. Get a fixture with individual reflectors (they minimize restrike between the tubes) and go with a fixture that you can control half the lights on one timer and half on another timer. This way you can use daylight and actinic lamps for a dawn/dusk effect which also minimizes sudden "light scare".

The Nova Extreme SLR T-5 fixtures give you good bang for your buck. They're pretty popular in the hobby.
Check out our Marineland Reef Capable LED fixture. Something like this will be suitable and provide more than enough light to sustain all of your desired inhabitants.
Zoo Med Aquasun T5 - HO Light Hood 48" 2 x 54 Watt
Holds 2 x 54 Watt T5 HO Bulbs
This is a good one too.
