Default Lighting over 36"x18" tank

Hi, I plan to put "Outer Orbit" fixture over my 50 gallon tank:
http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Produc...m?pcatid=12779

All-Glass Tank dimensions are as follows: surface 36"x18", hight 18".
It will be DSB setup, so the water column will be only 14" high.

I wonder if one 150 W double ended HQI + 2 x 96W pc actinics
would be adequate lighting for all demanding LPS/SPS corals
and tridacna clams or I would better go with more HQI light...
