Is This Light Ok for Coral?

Just wondering if this 30 Watt LED light I have for my 20 gallon tank is adequate for most corals or not...I don't know much about lighting. Pics attached...

I would start slowly with softies.

It will grow most corals just fine.

I've got zoas growing right now but would like to move up to hard corals...I am just worried about lighting for my first hard corals

I'm not familiar with the light. However a 30w light probably is lacking for sps

Which LPS corals would you suggest I start with?

In a small tank it might be hard to light for sps and not be too powerful for your Lps. Just be careful about that. Can’t say if the light would work though.
