Play whatever game you find fish in. O8 played properly takes a smaller bankroll than holdem at any given level. Most 7stud play I've found at the microlimits is worse than HE play. Having said that, the staggering amount of fish in micro limit HE makes those games particularly attractive.

Oh, and tight play gets the money forever... not just when starting a bankroll.

Since you're not a rank beginner, I'm going to go ahead and recommend spending another $25 on Small Stakes Hold'em (Miller) available on this website or at fine book retailers everywhere. It revolutionized my limit game.
