IMO, i feel for a 4 x 2 x 2 ft tank, you can even up the lights to 6 x 55 or use your 4 x 55 then add the 2 x 36 W too, that should suffice. I m assuming the majority of your plants to be fast growing stem plants and some other here and there.
It has been discussed before that some pple up their Iron, by dosing seachem Fe and also lower the NO3 to obtain the desired blood red. However, i believe that Fe and stong lights should be able to get the plants to the desired red that you would like to have. Well, you can also up the dosage of LGM to increase Fe, as long as not too much it should not have any drastic effects on the tank
hope it helps.
