What is the (k), and Watt value on your bulbs, tanks size?
Also do you have any fish who like to nibble corals, such as some angels.

pretty much no... most corals need liverock to stay stable., if you have fish only, then your corals will fall over, and later die. and my guess is your lights aren't good enough

It really depends on what size tank are we talking about for the lights? 18" is quite small, so depending on the depth of the tank, maybe.
