I would use one 400 or 600 in there bro,but that should be enough light to grow some buds(2-150s).Your just not going to have huge harvest.I like 400 in that size area

i was going to put a 400 in there but the guy at my shop said that it would be to hot and would be difficult to cool. this is my first time with hps i have 2 clamp fans and 1 oscilating fan and it stays about 80-85.

Yes it is enough of everything.

more is always better though as long as your temps are in check. but 300w hps in total should be more than enough, just have the lights as low as possible.

Dude to be honest he has 300W in total, so not so far off your 400w. yes bigger is better as long as it is not to hot.

yes and yes , althought 300wats of light will work i would recommend atleast 400wats but 600 would be perfect with the right ventilation
