I have a 54 gallon corner tank and wanna add T5ho lighting...The local store has a nova 2 bulb, 10000k and actinic(sp?) bulbs both 39 watt, will this be enough to add corals etc... or do i need four bulbs (watts?)..or just 2 bulbs more watts. Just another note found on ---- from Top dog sellers a Odyessa light one is a 24" T5HO 4 bulbs, (2) 24 watt 12000k and (2) 24 watt actinic blue, the other is just 2 bulbs T5HO 1 24 watt 12000k and one 24 watt actinic blue...Will either of those be enough?

what is the lenght of that light? The problem with the corner tank is it is not very wide or deep so it will only fit a 30" light
