    That's actually not a lot of light for that size tank, it's not too bad, but not a lot. You could keep softies and a lot of lps, but you would definitely be limited as to what sps you could keep and clams as well.

    or check your local craigslist, you can find people trying to unload stuff all the time, and usually for great prices.
