Flouros typicaly need to be close to the plant.
So you know you can never have too much flouro lighting |

None of that info is relavent when you are useing them to grow with, you need to find out how many lumons they are putting out, wattage doesnt matter and the energy saveing bulbs are usualy never a good thing.
There is a chart on here somewhere to help you figure out how many lumons a fluro is putting out, it should say somewhere on the package though.

10,000K is whiter than the 6,500K bulb that you need my man. coral-life is just the brand thats for fish tanks, fish tanks uasually have color tempratures of 10,000-20,000K ...

10,000k is pushing it, usually you want something around 6500k for veg and 2700k for flower, so i'm not sure how good that light will be for flowering, could be too white.
