I am still a little new to having a reef/fish tank, but have been doin good so far. I have a 60 gal tank w/ soft corals and wanted to get a capricornis type sps coral but not sure if I have enough lighting. I have an aqualife PC light that puts out 260 watts. It has the daylight and blue actinics. Do I really need metal halide for sps hard corals or would I do fine for awhile with what I have. I plan on upgrading to a 150 or 180 gal with MH by the end of the year. From what I've gathered, the light I have would be sufficient, but it wouldn't necessarily grow at all. All of the advice would help. Thanks.
