With individual reflectors and some good replacement bulbs.... ANYTHING you desire.

Does the individual reflectors separate from the light. And if so where do i get them.

The NEP has an individually contoured reflector. These are not as good as true individual reflectors that you would find in an aquactinics or TEK light, but they are a far cry better than the single reflector of a lot of other lights out there.
FWIW I am running the NEP on a 50 gallon breeder (36x18x18) and am keeping SPS at all levels of the tank.

How long has the tank been set up and what corals do you currently have? You should be able to keep any coral you want as long as it placed properly. If you want to try harder corals like SPS just make sure that all your parameters are good and stable.
