Two 70W HQI 20K

[HillbillyYoda]

Would using two 70W HQI fixtures/pendents over my 48x12x12 be overkill?

No, a 70 watt 20k would be a very low par bulb.

This is what it looked like before I bought from a local club member.

You cannot see par and brightness is no indicator. For a 12" tall tank it will work but it is far from overkill. What are you wanting to stock in it?

It will be fine for what you want.

Ok. I appreciate it.
