MH costs

I recently just purchased my first house! Yay! One of my big concerns is how my my fish tank is going to cost me in electricity? I currently have a MH (2- 150w MH and 4- 54w T5 bulbs) fixture on my 90 gal. that puts out about 526 total watts. But I also still have my old just T-5 fixture at about 216 watts. No would I be smarter in electricity cost reasons to sell my MH and use my T-5's? I plan on only keeping for corals some mushrooms so the T-5's would be plenty. What should I do?

t-5s! less watts less heat less money, and u only have to change the bulbs out every 18-24months
