Need help, which light is better

I am setting up my 150g tank and am trying to figure out which of these two lights is better. I do mostly soft corals, not into to hard corals. I am trying to find out which light is more efficient.

Thanks for the input!

i would say the first one

 

I would agree the first one, metal Halide produce good lighting, and the lunar system on the first set, is much better

 

metal halide fixture for sure

 

1st seems like the golden ticket

 

The first light you could grow more than just soft corals if you wanted to. What are you asking when you say which is more efficient? The second light uses much less electricity if that's what you're asking.
