Willl this be enough light?

Having a tank made, going to be 36" long and 24" deep. Will two AI Sol's be enough light? And can I go lenght wise with them? They will be about 8" above the waterline (tank will be 20" tall, waterline one inch below that and prob an 1-2 inches of sand)

also a friend told me about a 60w cree led aquarium light. will one of these work instead of 2 sol's?

Havent started it yet, but im going to do a mix tank, as far as corals go I want stuff the moves and flows with the water for the most part like frog spawn, hammers, anemonies, polips and stuff like that for starters (sorry if i spelt any of that wrong, still new to this hobby, setting up my first tank) Some other stuff later tho like brains and a few others I have on a list. But other than that some stuff that crawls around the bottom and maybe like 6ish fish, 2 of them are going to be clowns, and I hope to one day get a mandarin goby in there, but mostly small stuff.

If I do it tho with the LED's im going to get what I need now so hopefully I dont need to re-do it later. But would 2 of the AI's be good for my size tank? and can I mount them length wise or what? any ideas would be great!
