Exclamation Lighting help needed

I'm terrible when trying to figure this out and desperately need help.

Ok, I got my tank a few months ago, it came with a coralife PC fixture, that is 65W, it has one actinic bulb and 1 -10,000k bulb. Both bulbs are a dual bulb.

Now I have the opportunity to switch to a t5HO fixture, one is a 10K daylight and the other is a 67k broad spectrum. So there are only 2 bulbs in this fixture.

Is this going to be enough light for my tank? It's 27 gal, I have frogspawn, birdsnest, digis and gps. Plus two clowns. Everyone is happy and growing good with the existing lights, however I'm having a hell of a time trying to get new bulbs for it (which I understand), but is switching to essentially less light (if I'm looking at it right) really going to help me??


Thanks in advance for any advice offered
