See, i dont know what type of corals really. Just want a colorful eye-appealing reef. Ive heard SPS LPS and all that but am not experienced enough yet to know what these even stand for. Was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

Can someone link me to a good lighting setup for my 55g that is under $300?

Would this be good? http://cgi.ebay.com/T5-Lighting-Aquarium-Marine-Reef-48-4x-54-Watts-Bulbs-/110581354679?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19bf2990b7

Looking to get a good lighting set up for my 55 gallon tank, and would like to have the ability to grow any type of coral in my tank. http://cgi.ebay.com/48-4-ft-Metal-Halide-Aquarium-Reef-Marine-Light-760-W-/290475940902?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43a1b71c26 . What are your thoughts on this fixture?

So i could just buy some metal hallides for this fixture and be good as i will ever get as far as lighting for my 55gal? Or would i even need hallides?

So i will be able to grow everything with these lights, though? Sorry for being such a noob.

How does it compare the MH bulbs? What will i not be able to do with these lights? and do you have any pics illuminating a tank?

Looking to get this for my 55 gal, which is 48". Will be my first tank, how will these be for coral? I heard MH is the best? http://www.bigalsonline.com/BigAlsUS/ctl3684/cp18369/si1383408/cl0/coralife48aqualightpowercompactstriplight4x65watt those are what is with the tank as of now. PM me

Maybe true, but the $400 is still without any rock or fish.... I meant tank, lighting, skimmer, pump etc. Looking to go USED as well, not new.

for the whole setup? $400 for the tank and all the works.

Looking to start a setup for the first time! Gonna need all the works. Let me know what you got, thanks!
