I got him for 25$ when it was smaller!! From a buddy!! As for your lights I would upgrade them so that you can keep hard corals that need good lighting but this coral you actually have to feed it manually!! I feed it every other day mysis shrimp and Krill!! It does benefit from light through their photosynthetic zooxanthellae but needs nutrients, calcium to grow healthy!!

I've kept hard corals using VHO (Very high output) in the past but now I'm using LEDs!!
Expensive? Not anymore they aren't. You can get a good one for $90 nowadays. (120w-3wleds-full spectrum)

You can go Halide lighting which has great light penetration!! I like 14kelvins bulbs IMO there just the perfect combination!! But honestly lighting, Skimmer, return pump and heater Are four things that shouldn't be skimped!! IMO.
If lights can't penetrate your water efficiently corals and nems that depend on light may die or won't grow.
If the skimmer is a cheep one, excess Nutrients will build and cause headaches.
If the return pump fails either sump overflows or it will overheat and cause a crash.
And if the heater fails it will kill everything in your reef wether it be not functioning or overheats.
hope that helps!! Not to scare you or anything just made those mistakes in the past and would hate it to happen to anybody else!!
