Corallife lighting? Looking for advise.

[roadrunner]

I looked at the Coralife Lunar Auqalight. Here is the setup:
1-65 watt 10,000K Daylight & 1-65 watt 03 Blue Actinic Compact Fluorescent lamps , 2 built in ballasts, 2-3/4 watt Lunar Blue Moon Glow LED Lamps, 2 cooling fans 130 Watts
It would light a 26 gal bow.
Looking for imformation on these lights, as well as what you think.
Are lighting systems that have 3 lighting systems, including the moon glow optimum for a reef and should timers be looked at to regulate the times in which the lights are on?
If you dont like this light what would you recommend?
Thanks

That should probably be okay... I've got a corallife 96 watt pc along with the daytime lights and things are fine. I'm running a 46 gallon bowfront. As far as the moon lights... from what I hear and understand those things are kind of a joke. I was told not to waste any money on them.
