Here's a link to the beginning of my lighting set up in my tank journal. If you keep reading on you'll see that I modified it from 48" to 60" later on and changed the middle light to a 250 watt. Gives you an idea. I have a full sps tank now, for more info you can also look at the Tank of the Month link. I have sps growing sitting on the sand bed and it's a 24" tank. Hope this helps.
