I am totally new to reef aquariums.

My system is a 75 gal w two power heads and a dual bakpak.

I know I will move to a sump eventually, but my question is on lightin.

Currently I have a simple T5 4 build light but, what is the simplest and best programmable lighting system I can use?

Rather start right than buy 3-4 lights before I settle in
 
Programmable fixture? Easiest or the best?
T5 HO lights are one of the best out there to use on any tank. Does your cover the width of the tank? Or do you need to add another one?
All depending on what you plan on keeping:
Halides are still the best for SPS growth. (14k)
LEDs
T5s

With the T5s, you just have a choice of on and off with a 4 lamp system, 2 lights on/off or all on/off
