Lighting Question

[pjdaley]

I purchased a
CORALIFE 48" 260watt (4 - 65 w lamps ) ( sorry I changed it to 48")
2-65watt Actiinc
2-65watt 10,000K flourecent lamps
for a 55GL
Will that be enough for my live rock/polyps and some anomes(sp sorry) ?
I paid $360 for them, and is there something else that I should have got (besides the hadlies) ?

No one really answered the question...is that enough light i was thinking about doing the same set up and want to have some hard corals as well as many soft.... is that enough light?

from my short time on here, i know you are going to get a lot of differing answers here. I bought the same thing after talking to the guy at my LFS and he runs them on his tanks and he has successful corals.

The only thing you may have to worry about are certain types of anemone's and SPS corals.

No Hosting anenome's, clams or sps. Besides that you have a whole world of choices.
