i don't think you can have too much light on any tank. remember, you are trying to create the sun. a pretty hard thing to do! BTW, a freind of mine has a five and a half gallon with a 175 mh light. that tank is doing great! it's a sps tank. so what i'm trying to say here is, i think you'll be just fine with that set up. you might just want to use the 250's instead of the 175's.
