    Ok i want to start a 15g tank. the dementions are 24x12x12. i want to keep mostly sps so i will have the tank drilled for a overflow. I want to stay away from halides and go with t5s..im thinking of the 24inch teck lights (4 24watt lights=96watts=6.4 watts per gallon. will that be good for sps? Also what other stuff should i get protein skimmer and so on?

    will be fine with that light. You will also need a protein skimmer, test kits. Sps corals need calcium and alkalinity supplements as well
