My tank is a 55 gallon with 48 lbs lr snails hermits a firefish, nasotang, gold banded maroon clown, a foxface rabbit fish and a green chromis. I wont be adding any more fish and the ones I have now are doing famously.
I am getting those corals saturday and will be upgrading my lighting as well I guess since I know 2 15 watt 50/50s arent good nuff for the higher corals.

I'd wait on the corals, until you get your lights sorted. Adding lights can/will changed your temp, and can cause corals to go into shock. I had to add fans to my canape to help control temps. ;)

I don't think 2 15 watt 50/50's are good enough for any corals in a 55 gallon tank. (maybe a sun coral(haha)) Definitely get at least a 2X96 watt PC or 2X110 watt VHO setup.
