Re: corals

That is very low amount of light for your tank size.A halide pendant added to the exsisting would provide a better varity of types of coral.With the exsisting you could definantly grow some types of mushrooms,and zoo polyps should be ok also.
I would stay away from any hard coral with the lighting you have
