there are some stony coral that will live in lower light conditions, actually many will "live"
problem is they won't look good or grow well.
your best bet is to get at least T5 bulbs and then you can probably try stuff like Montipora Digitata, or maybe Monitpora Capricornus, both of these have been known to do well in less that "high" light. just keep in mind you will likely loose all but the most basic green and brown colors from them..
Then with the T5 lights you can add more bulbs in the future to increase your overall light, or use those T5 fixtures as supplemental if you ever upgrade to MH's or something
