Can kits like these from marine/ aquarium stores be used?
MH Kit 1
MH Kit 2
Just a regular lighting company with kits
Regular COmpany
Are there any differences?

They all look similar to me. You just want to make sure that you match your ballast Wattage with your light Wattage. You may also want to ask how detailed the instructions are that come with the package depending on your electrical experience. This is not stuff to be playing around with if you have no experience as the parts involved can easily do serious harm.

There are some HID lamps that will only run in one orientation or the other ie: horizontal only or vertical only or lastly "universal" which doesnt care about orientation
