Help with 180 lighting

I'm upgrading my soft coral tank from 75 gallons with 480 watts of PC to a 180 gallon tank.

I have only soft corals and clams doing well.

question - what t5 lighting would you recommend and wattage?

for soft coral could I use 150 watt halides on this tank?

Your input please
