Default Lighting calculations

Hi,
I'm new to reefing and saltwater in general. My question is in realtion to the lighting for soft corals and mushrooms in general.
Everything I've read either specifies X watts per gallon, now I have currently a aqualight rated at 65Watt Daylight and 65Watt Actnic, totaling 130Watts, so at 5Watts per gallon that supposrts a 25Gal aquarium right?
does the type of bulb whether Actnic Blue or Daylight white come into play?
Am I making myself clear?
Jim
