too much light?

My LFS has always encouraged me to run any 14k or brighter light with a 10k light. Right now I am running 2 X 250w-14k hammilton HQI on their own blallasts and 2X96watt hammilton actinics. Is there any dangers to adding say 1X150-10k light? Bleaching would be a quick side effect and heat. I think my tank could benefit from some heat, my heaters are always on. I know it would probably greatly increase my growth.

So how much is too much?
 
Just to clarify, Im not switching out from th 14k, I love the color, but I was going to add another 10k 150 watt to the system
 
If this is for your 58g tank, you have more than enough lighting in there for anything you want. The 150w isn't going to do much more for you, just add to your electric bill.
