I purchased a current orbit lighting system from LFS. What types of corals and anemones can I have with this type of lighting. And by the way thanks to everyone for answering all of my newbie questions. Happy Holidays.

That all depends on the size of your tank, how deep it is, what type of bulbs youre running and how many watts the unit puts out.

Dual Daylight (10,000K & 6,700K) and Dual Actinic (460nm & 420nm) Compact Fluorescent bulbs (number of lunar lights depends on fixture--see listings below for info on number of lights in each unit)
From one to six Lunar Lights (number of lunar lights depends on fixture--see listings below for info on number of lights in each unit). The Lunar Light is a very small LED that sits inside the fixture above the bulbs. Use the Compact Fluorescent Dual Daylight and Dual Actinic bulbs for lighting for twelve hours during the day and use the Lunar Light(s) to illuminate the tank with a dim blue moon-lite glow for the twelve hours a day your Compact Fluorescent bulbs are turned off.
A Black powder coated extruded aluminum housing. A great match for All-Glass, Island, Oceanic and Perfecto Aquariums.
Independent controls for dawn, dusk. Moon-Lite also independently controlled (each unit has three power cords).
Parabolic reflector.
3", fan for ventilation.
Adjustable light stilts for elevating above aquarium.
Easily removable acrylic lens.
The tank is 37 gallon high, I do not have exact measurements at the moment.

You might want to get something a little bigger since It's a 37 high , that's what I have on my 29 GAL !!!

or just put your higher light corals closer to the surface and keep the zoos and shrooms lower in the tank...
