You plan on coral?
 
yes, maybe some star polyps, xenia , ricordea mushrooms, a torch, etc. Is it good enough?
 
Yes it will be good enough for softies and lps however it is an off brand and quality, reliability, and durability are probably shaky at best. Id do some research on it before buying.
 
check ebay for used lights. I got a 6bulb t5HO brand name fixture for half price just because it was a year old. I put new bulbs in it and it works perfectly.
