no need to upgrade the lights.
Move slowly, avoid SPS and clams until the tank is mature and steady.
mature and steady.
steady.
steady nutrient levels, salt level, water level, calcium, alk, etc are what make tanks great.
Don't focus on lights (right now), go with soft corals and LPS until you get a feel for the husbandry. Remember to feed quality foods. Quality food is not pellets and flakes.
take a peek at the "Feeding" tab on this spreadsheet i have created. It has links to many good feeding strategies and foods.
