Lighting help for my 30 gallon

I was wondering if I would be able to keep SPS with my current light setup. I am running a 2 X 39w T-5 setup and 2 Panorama LED strips, both strips are the blue/white mix. My tank is a 30 gl long 36L X 12W X 16D and I have about 2.5inches of sand. I have been running just the T-5's for almost a year now and I have been keeping an open brain and favia brain with no issues and I have been able to keep them at any depth with no problem. My main limitation is space because I need to be able to fit all my lighting under a hood I was thinking about maybe adding 2 more of Panorama's because I really like them or would the lighting that I have already be enough.
