you should be just fine with softies and even some LPS (closer to the surface) with 4 bulbs.
Don't even bother running the other 2 bulbs if they are not even over your tank.
Honestly, there has been enough reefers and manufacturers taking par readings and your desired corals are such low light specimens that buying a par meter is overkill.
Ask how many reefers own one and you will find not many.
Probably not even the ones who suggested you get one do.
just run your 4 T5HO's and you will be just fine with the corals you specified.
