I currently am waiting for the 125 gallon tank to cycle so I am reading up on T5 lighting which is what came with my tank when I bought it. I have 2 36" 2 bulb fixtures mounted under my canopy ( redneck mounting style with "L" brackets and nut and bolts and it wasn't me...LOL ). My question would a 4 bulb system suit my needs I a currently just starting with a FOWLR tank until I get the hang of salt water. Probably start out with some Tangs, Clowns, Damsels, and a CUC ( in which I need research to see what would be better for my tank ).
 
Sure, I think the light will be fine for what you want to do now, but as you add corals you'll need to add more bulbs into the mix. I'd go with at least 6 bulbs on the tank.
