How bigs the tank? My guess is that you wont be able to keep a whole lot, maybe some shrooms and some polyps.

 

[hutchinson]

its 2 65 watt bulbs for a 55 gallon
the lights are 48 inches long

I agree-shrooms maybe. you would be better off with the 4 x 65 wtt.

Well, I have seen anemones kept under less watts than you have.
Take it easy, start with leathers and mushrooms, then upgrade your lights.

you could do that but why waste your money and buy lights now and then upgrade later thats a waste of money IMO so just shovel out the extra $$$$ and buy the best now or wait until you can afford the best

Shut up. Not everyone is a rich little kid.
You can stock a beautiful tank of leathers that looks just as good (or as some would argue, better) with the aformentioned lighting.

The one that you had picked out is fine. Or,*Link Removed* is awesome. I have that one

 

[spitfire]

Link doesn't work. Go to *Link Removed* and search Power Compact Aquarium.
If it doesn't show up, tell me.
