I currently have 2 24w T-5 ho Lights running off a workhorse 3 ballast there in a canopy over my 29g tank. I had plans on adding another workhorse 3 and hooking up 2 more 24w T-5's, but was wondering what i could keep with just the 2 lights?

all kinds of zoo's , softies, some lower light LPS should be fine.

I assume you have one daylight and one actinic....i would go ahead and add the other 2 lights....anyway, RobNJ said it right, so i would stay away from xienia, anemones, clams, and any sps....until you can add more lights. I would recommend getting some green star polyps or some shrooms, they seem to be fairly hardy and dont thrive on alot of light.

if you add the second set of T5's, you would probably be on the cusp of being able to keep most anything. If you don't have parabolic reflectors for your T5's you may want to consider that too.

I use 5 60" T5's on my 125 and I have no fear about putting anything into my tank.
