Default 55 watts of light for 26 gallon ?

I have a 26 gallon bow front tank with a 55 watt flourescent and 55
watt actinic light.

Is this 55 watt Flourescent enough for a "jungle type" (Plants that
require high light and nutrients) tank as referenced by
www.thatpetplace.com in their live plants pack. Do i have enough
light? Or do I need to change the Actinic bulb to another full
spectrum light for total of 110 watts.

is 55 ok or do i need 110? I have co2 injection by yeast method. Let
me know what you think .. thanks
