Need help deciding on lighting for a cube

I can get a really good deal on a marineland starfire 250 gallon cube.
The dimensions are 60" x 36" x 27"high.
I want to keep the power consumption down as minimal as possible.
It will also be filled with mainly sps from my current tank which is a 90g with a aquatinics constellation.

I need ideas on what to use or should i just add more t-5's to the constellation?

That's not even close to a cube.

MH would suck more juice than T5's.
