what light for a 46g 36" SPS tank

[Fijiwigi]

I currently have a 46g bowfront tank with a 36" Coralife Lunare aqualight Power Compact fixture. its only 192W and leaves me limited on what I can keep. I need advice on which fixture to buy that will allow me to keep SPS corals. Looking online it looks like the fixtures with Metal Halide are about 450 dollars. Does anybody know of someone selling a 36" HQI fixture. or If there are any T5 fixtures that would allow me to handle SPS. I would really like to get a great deal not just a good one.

I think most people will tell you that t5s are ok for SPS. Personally if I were going to spend money on new lighting I'd def. go with Mh. I ordered one of the inexpensive ones (Odessya). Some people rag on them but they've worked pretty gooo for me so far (and for a lot of other reefers).
