    i have 130w of pc in my tank and my acros are doing well...i personally think that 150w HQI and 2x65w actinic is going to be too much unless you put it 2 feet above your tank.JMO

    You won't have a problem...just make sure to acclimate the corals to the upgraded lighting in your tank. When you go from low light to stronger or vice versa...you have to acclimate corals slowly to avoid stress and bleaching your coral.
