Need some advise

Ok, I need some advise from all you reefers. I have 2 FOWLR tanks and I would like to add some color to them so I think I might try my hand at corals. My 75 has 4x54 watt T5 lighting and from what I have read I could keep some zoas, mushrooms, and soft corals. Is that correct? Also, what kind/type would you suggest? And I am not looking to dump alot of money into them to start with, I'd like to get a taste of raising corals as cheaply as I can.
My 125 just has T6 and T10 standard florecent lights, so there really isn't anything I can keep in there, right?

correct on both tanks. my advice would be to pick the shrooms and zoos you like. don't buy some boring brown shrooms or zoos simply to "try it out". you'll most likely be plagued with them later on and be very sorry. btw, some zoos like stronger lighting. just look at where they are in who ever's tank you buy them from. if they are under an overhang or down at the bottom, they are not light needy......
