Fast answer on 400W for a 20L?

[mxracer19]

I recently came across an awesome deal on a full 400W MH retrofit kit with a 20k bulb for $60 out the door from a LFS going out of business. I have to pick it up today before 5. I have a 20L with mostly LPS and some zoanthid, however I'd like to get into the SPS. I know 400W is ALOT of light for a 20L, but is it doable? Or will it just be TOO bright?

Thanks,
Matt

IMO... it's just not going to be a good thing for the 20L... too much light.. you will have a hard time acclimating things and keeping water temp stable.

but like tony said thats way to much light for a 20 long
