[leesanhua]

how much lighting enough for 10 gal? i will have fish and coral.
try to get compact flurocent.
would it be too high if i get 65watt? or it's better that i go for 36watt

Depends on what kind of corals you want. 65 watts will give you 6.5 WPG and that isn't too bad for some corals. Some like lower light too. You need to first do your research on what you want, and then pick out the best suitable light.

any web site that i can look at what kind of watt that the corals like.

i will not get any hard coral which will like "bright" lights.
any suggestion?

how many watt/gal is consider low light
how many watt/gal consider medium light
and how many is high light?

one more Q. would this be too much for 10gal?

A coralife 20" Aqualight would work perfectly and is under $100
