Hello Ajay:
Lighting requirements are totally dependent on what you plan on keeping
in your tank, and the depth of your tank. 20K halides are good for
maintaining good coloration in many hard corals. As a general response
however, 20K halides should be adequate for most light-requiring
organisms as long as you tank is not too deep.
