Enough Light?? I hope

I am building a 120 gl reef. 48" X 24" X 24".
I currently have:
2 - 175watt 10,000k mh = 350watts
2 - 110watt 50/50 actinics = 220watts
2 - 110watt super blue actinics = 220watts
total of 790watts or 6.58watts/gl
Is this a sufficient amount of light for good coral growth and good variation in spectrum?
Also has anyone used fluorescent black lights for moonlight?
If so or not I would like to hear about this also.
Thanks,
FANCLAN :help:

You will be fine for light, but I would expect to have to add a chiller.
For that reason, I went all VHO's.
I HAVE 6 48" VHO's over my 125, and there is plenty of light!
