Hey there, RC forums!
My boyfriend and I are moving across town at the end of the month, and figure since we're moving the tank, it'd be a good time to do a little bit of an overhaul (even though the tank is relatively still in its beginning stages).
Eventually, we'd like to do some coral in our tank.
We have a 135 gallon Oceanic tank. It is 72" long.
Our lighting budget is about $500.
This is what we're looking at:

Any pointers? Can someone suggest a better light set up for our budget?
What kind of coral could we hope to manage with this kind of lighting?
Thanks for any help!
