1 watt LED's should work just fine. I use 1 watt LED's in my Reef Tank and they grow LPS and the SPS corals awesome and they are on a 150g. Because your doing it in such a small tank you should be fine with any kind of LED you may consider something cheaper though on such a small tank unless your really wanting LED's.

If it were me, I would personally not purchase those. I would order a Stunner Strip LED Light. They are cheap and can be purchased in 6 watt LED's as well. They are also made by very reputable LED makers like ecoexotic so you know they will do a great job and that's what they are made for. Here's what they look like. http://www.marinedepot.com/ps_searchItem.aspx?SearchText=stunner%20led&gclid=COyFt5a22K0CFYFx4Aoddy2EnQ&vendorname=Ecoxotic&vendorcode=XX&parsed=1

Those lights are not LED and produce some heat. Look at the Q&A section on that link.
