welcome to the boards.
you do not want to run hps bulbs on your tank the are the wrong spectrum if I remember correctly but i am not a lighting expert.
what r you planning on putting if you tank? will it be a fish only,fowlr or reef
depending on what you want to keep depends on the type of lighting you need. if you are planning a reef i would go with either t5 with individual reflectors or metal halides. how big is/will your tank be?
i'm sure somebody will post that can help you more. Again welcome to the boards and ask as many question as you want we are all here to help.
