Need help with lighting for reef tank

[Madmike10000]

I have a 65 gallon tank 36" 18" 24" it does not have a brace in the middle (thank god) the question is will a 250 metal halide/t5 combo light the tank well enough for me to have any coral i want? ( Sps and lsp) and what do people think of this led light. Its cheap but that what scares me. should i get this or go with the metal halide. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00OK...s+300+watt&dpPl=1&dpID=513ov0nyo6L&ref=plSrch

Most are using this even cheaper light!
165W Marsaqua Dimmable LED Aquarium Grow Light Full Spectrum LPS SPS Coral Reef | eBay

They say it will grow anything you want!

I have 2 but have not used them yet(waiting for my acan(LED) to die)
Lots of post and info here on them in reef section.
Right down to settings.
I can think of at least 5-10 members running them now.

if you post this in the reef section(or some marine topic) some of the salties may respond?
Not many of them visit the other side of this site.
