i assuming you have t5's? that should be sufficient for softies and lps. maybe not bright enough for something like clams and sps though. =]

What exact bulbs are you using?

Get some ATI bulbs and do a combo of bluespecial and blue+ or if it is too much light swap in a super actinic.

I think you are good to go. Assuming the 54W are T5HO.

Depends on what fixture you have. If you have a fixture with individual reflectors, you might be able to pass, but barely. If there's just one huge reflector for all the bulbs, I'd say that you could only go with softies and lps.
