I going to set up a 20 long as a QT and future frag tank. Would two Kessil 80 lights be enough?
 
YES!!
FYI, QT doesn't really need a light.
Some preder a small light as they can inspect the fish in anything that can happen while in QT.
On a side note, if you use it as future frag tank you never can use some kind of medication in there to tread your fish if something might appear.
IMO I would get a second 20 long and set that up as frag tank with your Kessils and have a QT on hand if you want to buy new fish but QT for 8 weeks.

Thanks I have a hospital setup for meds.
Just need a lace to QT one or two new fish and the corals I'm getting ready to order.

That's awesome my friend.
Wish many more hobbyist would do like that.
 
I just setup a 20 frag tank. I put this on top for lighting: Current USA Orbit Marine Aquarium LED Light 24"-36". I like it has timer, ramp up-down, variety of ready to go programs or you can program as you like. This is the second of these lights I have bought. I have another one on my fish qt. tank. The tank is almost finished cycling.
