For a mix reef I would start off with that. use a par meter and see if more light will be needed when everything is set up.
I am only 5yrs into this money pit (means nothing, I am a baby), but I've had OK success, and I'd say that is ridiculous for light to start with - 2 cents

A mix tank ain't gone die anytime soon due to low light. Lights are probably last on the, "should I do more" checklist.

Totally get what ur saying I’m not just getting into reefing I’ve been reefing for about 15 years but my 180-190 can’t remember it’s actual size lol is out of room and my buddy got a custom 300 gallon built and filled it with water then found out he was having a kid took it down and he needs the space where it’s sitting so I’m getting a wild deal on it so that’s the only reason I’m asking if that light setup will work for now so when I transfer everything over into it I’ll still have the light to grow corals instead of having to upgrade so much equipment off the hop that’s all
