Huh? Are you asking if there are corals that don't need more than a plain strip light? Not any that I know of (or that will last long...)

Years ago it was extremely hard to keep a reef. Lighting was only one factor. Ask your mom to name a specific coral for you that she has seen or heard of. I cannot think of any. Maybe she was seeing fake corals. I don't know.
