The coralvue ballasts are fine but my personal preference would be to get 2 separate so if in the future one goes bad you only need to replace one. Reeflux 12k's are nice bulbs but not super high...

Re: gate valve mod

You can but most PVC ball valves are pretty pitiful and you probably will not be able to make fine adjustments. Just get the gate valve and be done with it.

Re: hydnophora good starter?

I believe hydnophora is considered an LPS, but it is easy to keep. However it is deadly to almost anything it touches so give it room.
