Default light required by diferent corals

Darren,
ya thats what I figured.. thats why I was asking for a name so I could look into it.. I don't have a problem paying that much if it tells me what i want to know..

Brad,
I read that and have a question from it.. if, lets say a SPS was taken from 30 Meters ( I was reading that the find some this deep) so now this comes to the store whare it is put under MH lights ad a distance of 1 foot, maby it is thee for a couple days and now you buy it and put it in your tank 2" below the surface because a SPS should have as much light as it can get..

is this coral going to die or will it adapt to the light? and if it adapts is it possable to adapt it backwards to lower light? I know the coloration won't be as good I have read a few articles on how much light and time it takes to colour up the tips on acro's but would it grow and live good?

Steve
