It's 6' long
lighting a 6 foot tank to support all corals isn't going to be cheap. but here's a couple of ideas that you might want to consider:
3x250w MHs with T5 or VHO actinic supplements
or
6x54w T5 (staggered) running on an Icecap 660 ballast
or
4x80w T5 running on an Icecap 660 ballast
There's a couple of setups that should work to keep almost anything. I would go with setup #2 personally.
