I would say its not enough. Ive personally never seen MH lighting for aquariums under 150 watts. IMO i would go with 1 150w. Then youll be able to house anything in a 24 gallon.

IceCap and Aqua Medic ( maybe others too ) makes 70 watt MH fixtures and the bulbs are available up to 20K.
Thats only 2.9 watts per gallon and will be good for some corals and clams but not the real light hungry ones.
