Hey guys I was originally planning on going with t5s but changed my mind 'cuz I don't want to change out the bulbs every half year or so. I already have the marine land reef capable leds, which I was using on a fish only freshwater tank. Since that's probably not enough I was thinking of supplementing it with the 24-36" current usa marine led. I think it comes out to like 45ws total with both fixtures. I know wattage isn't as important with leds, but is this enough to grow a wide variety of corals in a 20 gallon? Thankss
 
I think u will be ok in that size tank... May need to put sps up higher in tank closer to the light.

Since I have been shopping for LED's for our regular 29g. I emailed Current USA and said that it will support Softies and LPS and I will need two fixtures. Hope this helps.
