pls someone advise urgently if i should buy this?

[trotsky123]

need a new light for my newly purchased 54 gallon corner bowfront tank
i am not planning any corals or anything crazy
saw this on ebay -
30" - Coralife T5 Saltwater Fixture - 36 Watt
One 18 Watt 10,000K Daylight - T5 Bulb
One 18 Watt True Actinic 03 - T5 Bulb
Please advise if this is ok, as it's very cheap (for new)
If so, I'll buy it right away

It will be fine for a fish only tank or perhaps a few low light demanding coral but I believe in the long run you will not be happy with this light and will want to upgrade.

Thank you spanko.
Btw, I just realized that there are different W bulbs available
Do people just upgrade let's say from 18w to 31w?

No the ballasts are specific to a certain bulb.
