Question about my lights?

[zackp00]

Ok guys I have a 120 and I am wanting to start introducing some coral to my tank. I have a current brand light with two 65 watt Dual Daylight 6,700k/10,000k and two 65 watt Dual Actinic 420nm/460nm. Is this good enough for corals. When I bought my tank and setup at the lfs they said it was what he suggested but I no longer go the this lfs do to some of the stuff he has suggested. I wish I would have looked on here along time ago but o well. Also name some good starter corals for me to put in at first.

what u hv is power compact lighting. not the best when compared to t5 or mh. with 4 pc bulbs over a 120, u can keep zoas, shrooms and most leathers. lps and sps r out of the question.

I myself am in the process of setting up a 120g.Im planning on 2 t-5s in the front and 2 t-5s in the back with 2 250w mh in the middle. This will allow me to keep anything and will also be pleasing to the eye. You could go with 6 or 8 t-5s or 2 250mh. There are so many options.

if its a 120, then go with 8 t5 bulbs or 2 175w or 250w mh.
