Hey Rah,
I am a n00b grower myself and i have posted in the general growing area for some help with my grow. However i will try to help anyone else wherever whenever i can.
It sounds to me that you have at least one Metal Halide bulb and possibly two?
Which bulb goes with which reflector, well it seems they are both 1000w but i would imagine that the biggest bulb goes into the biggest reflector fitting and the smaller into the smallest. The biggest one is the one that i reffered to as a Metal Halide (MH) this type of bulb is good for vegative growth and at 1000w it is a powerfull bulb, more than ample i would say for a small grow. You can flower with this type of bulb but you will get much better results with a (HPS) High Pressure Sodium lamp. The Metal Halide is high in the blue light spectrum ideal for vegative growth, and Sodium bulbs are high in the red colour of the spectrum which is ideal for flowering.
Do your reflectors have any mounts/holes on the outside of the fitting which would indicate that they would be for a hanging chain? I would assume that they are vertical, most are.
Also it looks like the smaller bulb MS1000 is a Metal Hilide too, which means you could use them both together for vegative growth for a larger area.
Hope this helps somewhat.
Peace and happy growing.
LGM :)
