Now its time to consider Lighting! *SUNSMILE*

I know I want power compacts, but what ones should I go with?

Coralife 20" AquaLight Fixture - 1 x 28W

OR

Coralife 20" AquaLight Fixture - 1 x 96W

That brings me to a question though, will the 96watt ones burn any of the corals in my tank? Gotta remember my tank is small...

OH This would help :p I want zoas, rics and green star polyps (getting those for free)

UPDATE!!
I bought the 36watt 50/50 PC lights yesterday, MAN what a difference! The tank is SOO bright now it hurts my eyes! :p
Also, I got fish! Well...one fish of course :p I got my False Percula Clownfish! I've had him for about a week, and I didnt want to post about him until I was 100% sure he was eating and healthy, and he is! He eats mysis shrimp and sprinula flakes.
AND today I should be getting my FIRST CORAL! Green star polyps from a friend, he said its about a 4inch peice that I'm getting. I cant wait! Pics Soon to come!

Well my dad seems to think that you can put one oldbattery in a camera with a new one, and it'll work good as new, but nooo my camera is connected in . . . parallel i think, so it drains the new battery to the level of the old battery FAST. I need to buy my own freaking batteries today :p

Thanks Matt :)
He is SUCH a piggie fish, seriously any food I add to the tank he gets before the shrimp even has a chance...So I gotta sneak in some food sometimes for the shrimp :p
But this brings up a question for debate...
I'm getting rid of my coral banded shrimp, when he had his claws (lol) he would pinch at my clown, and would even cause some fin damage. :eek:
So think I could put in another fish? I was thinking a small neon goby? If I did, overall stocking would be False Perc, Neon Goby and CUC.
