Think it depends on the height of the tank.

I think PL lights are the minimum... and place near the top... if using FL.. don't think u can have LPS

they 'MAY' bloom... but certainly not thrive.. most prob will die in a few months time the most.... if u want corals.. u gotta have good lights.. this type ofm money cannot save one.... want to save money then go for FOWLR

Wat abt PLs or T5s.IMO, they r very expensive and adding mthe cost of the corals. i may spend up to maybe a few hundreds on lighting & corals

you have got no choice.. if u want corals.. u have to have good lightings... T5s will be good... a few hundred dollars extra for corals is not enough.. there are more things to take note off other than lights.. yr water parameters has to be better as well... read up more before going into corals..

what's the point of buying lots of corals which can cost up to over thousands of dollars and yet dun hv the necessary equipments to keep them? i wld rather u save up and buy the appropriate equipments b4 stocking up on corals.
