I picked up 30'' T5 Aquarium Light Hood that has 2 24W T5 HO lamps 12000K and 2 24W T5 HO lamps Actinic Blues.

Would this be enough in a canopy above a 55g with LPS and softies? No issues if not, I just don't want to go through an exchange if it would work. I don't mind having lower light on the edges for low light lovers either.

TIA!!
 
4 bulbs/lamps should be enough for Softies and Lps.
