Would there be a problem if I added this along the back of my Photon v2+ for some extra lighting? I just dont know why it says fowlr, do certain lights harm coral?

It should be fine. The only reason I can see for them to say FOWLR is perhaps the bulbs they include may not be in a spectrum great for corals. I would just get a couple ATI Blue+ bulbs and put them in there.
