So i bought a used kessil a360x tuna blue that came with a dongle and kessil mounting arm for around $95. I'm assuming this is a killer deal from what I've read on them. The light works and is mounted above a 3 gal pico aio and a half gallon pico macro jar as of 20 minutes ago. Is this overkill? I have it turned down quite a bit. Should i switch it with the g3 on the left side of my 20 gallon or just leave it as is? (id like to keep the k7 mini on the right side of the 20 since its growing sps very well). The 20 gallon is doing good with what it has on it so it seems pointless to switch over at the moment, yet on the other hand the kessil seems like it'll be too much on the pico right? Suggestions are greatly appreciated.
 
That seems like way too much light for that tank. Have you looked at the A160WE? Seems to me this would be the better option.

I had a aquaknight a029 on them but it seemed to be getting too little light, even for zoathids. It does seem to be a lot for such a small tank+jar. Should switch it out with the g3? 60watt vs 90watt would be a better trafe off I'm thinking. I was gonna get a lower wattage light but for the price i couldn't not get the a360x.

Way overkill, but the light can be dimmed down to 1% intensity with the app.
