Having finaly under stood filters, skimmers, and UV zappers I now need to better under stand Lighting.
I have a 75 gal reef tank with not enough LR and 2.5" of LS I have a few fish lots in inverts, and other creepy crawlers.
So far I have had good luck with all of my Anenome though I only have two one bubble and a big one with tenticals.
Now My grilfriend bought me a nice corial that if dies I may die also. I have two lights now and just bought two more. They are as follows..
cora life 50/50
Power Glo
Cora Life Trichromatic
Marine Life
If i run all 4 will i be ok?

Most aquarists recommend about 4-5 watts per gallon. The kind of bulbs also makes a difference, for stoney corals many recommend at least VHO but prefer MH. IMO, you're better off investing in a MH/VHO or MH/PC combinations.You will save a lot of lifeforms and money in the long run. What coral do u have?
