I had the same set up on a 29. I added another 65W strip for a total of 195W and have clams. When I had only 130W on it, the clams seemed to be over extended and stretching for more light (not good). 50/50 is 1/2 white, 1/2 actinic (blue). IMO with those lights, you have to stay away from SPS, clams and light intensive anenomes. Softies will do fine. Zoos, mushrooms, leathers, frogspawn, most bubble and most LPS will do ok.
