The simple answer is yes, but it really depends. What type of corals do you plan to keep? Will you be only stocking softies, or will it include some LPS and SPS species? The tank dimensions, depth, bulb density, and bulb color also have an effect. I would suggest reviewing some of the numerous reef forums to learn more.
Also, make sure that they are HO T5 and not NO T5; only the HO T5 bulbs have the intensity to maintain corals.

How much electricity does a reef tank use?
This is entirely dependant on the size of the reef tank and the equipment you choose to run it. I would estimate however that the average reef aquarium of between 40 and 90 US gallons uses somewhere in the neighborhood of 500-600 watts during the day(more due to lights), and about ~300 watts at night.
I have a 60g freshwater tank I want a reef tank or a FOWLR Do I make my 55g a reef tank which will take awhile live rock alone cost a lot Or do I sell my 55g and buy a 20 or 30g and use the leftover?
The larger the tank, the easier it is to maintain. So if you are new to this, stay with the 55 gallon, research a lot, and be patient with saltwater aquariums.
