We are often asked whether freshwater lights are suitable for use on a marine aquarium, or whether new lighting systems are to be put in place when converting from a tropical to a marine set up. In short, no they are not suitable as they do not provide enough light for corals and plants to survive. 

Marine lights provide a blue tint and more power, providing Coraline Algae with the light it needs to thrive in your marine aquarium. Furthermore, marine lights are designed to enhance the colour of saltwater fish, enhancing the aesthetics of your aquarium.
