i have always done freshwater tanks before, i just started a 55 saltwater with 9 damsels. with a double bulb (trichromatic and actinic) system. would that be sufficient light for inverts such as anemones. also i have a wet dry. would this be sufficient for inverts also? are there any corals that would survive in such a setup? thanks

damsels are a mean little fish and i recomend getting rid of them as soon as your tank cycles they will kill any thing worthwhile or anything for that matter 9 fish is way to much for a 55 gal reef tank 4 should be max especialy with inverts also many people have told me not to mix anemone,s with corals because of chemical warfare between both spiecies and the problem of pollution however with the right filtration you can keep inverts on one side of your tank and corals on the other.
