Coralline question/ new tank

[iGotJokess]

I just picked up a few pieces of live rock from my LFS to help the cycle. I wasn’t planning on turning my lights on throughout the cycle, I put the live rock in my sump. Would a fuge light be able to keep the coralline? Is there any benefit to running a fuge light while cycling? Any input is appreciated. I have 2 Radion xr30 g5 blues which are not setup yet.

I don't know of any reason you have to run your fuge light. Coraline often shows up first in shady spots. I have it in QT tanks that havea single freshwater fluorescent type bulb. Stable parameters and time is usually all that is needed for coraline algae growth.
