Do I need T5 lighting or not?

I'm setting up my first saltwater tank. This tank is going to be a trial run for 5-9months to make sure I can run a saltwater tank without problems. Then I'm upgrading to a 90gal and getting the fish I REALLY want(triggers and groupers oh my!)

This is going to be my stock in my first tank:
-Coral beauty Angelfish
-Lemonpeel Angelfish
-3 stripe damsel
-Jewel Damsel
-Leather Toadstool coral
-Yellow Fiji leather coral

What lighting is a must? Is T5 needed? Could CF do the job of getting the corals what they need?(I might add a few other hardy corals later.)
I don't want to spend a ton on T5 lighting if I don't NEED it since it will be less than a year before I upgrade and my new tank will be marine only so no need for T5 at all.

Opinions?

 

yes i would get t5's what are the tank dimentions

 

I have a 29gal tank it's 30"L

 

def not a must for a fish only tank..but i will say that even with a fish only tank, if you get t5s with some purple and blue and white lights, your fish are gonna look cooler in your tank..they will glow some different colors, or have different colors stand out more.. so if you have the money i would suggest you get a 4bulb t5 fixture.. and i would go with 2 white bulbs and a blue and a purple

 

so probably only 2 t5 bulbs?

 

I was gonna go with 2 daylight bulbs and 1 actinic and maybe an led for fun. Trying to find a decent priced one of ebay or amazon that can ship to me by next wednesday as that is when my fish arrive from freshmarine.com! If worst comes to worst I'll buy a light at the petstore until mine gets here then return it *shrugs*

 

did you let your tank cycle?

 

It will be 12days by the time the fish get here and I also bought some chemicals that help even more with the nitrate levels.

Thanks for the replies

 

ok... i hope it is done when the fish get here :/ umm for lighting i looked on ebay nothing really jumps out at me. lighting is very important though so might as well buy somthing of high quality

 

How does this one look?
