[peckhead]

ihave a few questions though...
1. what are the different types of corals? idk what a softy is or a hardy or whatever they are called. sps? idk any of them. if you tell me the names i still wont know but i will be able to look them up.
2. are butterfly fish reef safe? pakistani in particular...
3. with t5 lighting would i be able to keep most corals?

4. i plan on spending about 300 on lighting...what type of lighting would you recomend. its a 90g. isitll dont know what type of coral i want to keep because i dont know what the differences are yet.

i can answer the lighting question. yes t-5's will allow you to keep anything you want. i dont know if $300 will be enough though because for a 90 gallon you need at least a 6 bulb set up with an 8 bulb being the best. If i recall my TEK 6-bulb T5 setup ran me over $400 w/ bulbs, protective bulb cover and mounting brackets.

I would go ahead and get MH.
